Victor,
I haven't seen "Ridicule" but I saw the "Woman Next Door" with her and Depardieu. I also remember a few years ago when I was in Paris there were dozens of billboards tooting the theatrical production of the "Pedale Douce" with Pierre Richard and possibly Ardant(I know she was in the film adaptation of the play as well).
You are so obviously right about the "schooling" of Hollywood actors. I suggested to my brother going to the Lee Strasberg academy because it was a good way for him to stop going to Russian restaurants and getting into fights in LA. He took classes there for close to a year, and studied with some people who were already making films.
After that he had one small role in some independant film(didn't get paid) and a main part in some ins.co. commercial. When he told me how much he got paid for one day's work - my jaw dropped(good thing I'm a dentist - fixed it myself),I'm not going to give you the number but it was A LOT!
I just got 2 video tapes - Agonia and Pepel and Almaz(Ashes & Diamonds). I'm watching the latter. Will report as soon as...
