Déborah François
Biography
Déborah François is an actress whose career began while she was still in high school, when the Dardenne brothers cast her in The Child (2005). Her portrayal of Sonia, a young mother, earned praise, and the film won the Palme d'Or at Cannes in 2005. She had taken acting lessons from the age of 10 until she was 16, though she never expected acting to become her profession. In 2006 she was back at Cannes, where The Page Turner (2006) screened in the Un Certain Regard category. Its director, Denis Dercourt, a musician, said she reminded him of the child prodigies he had once taught. For playing a family's teenage daughter in The First Day of the Rest of Your Life (2008) she received a César for Most Promising Actress. That early promise led to many films in the years since.
