Sylviane Margollé(1950-2005)
- Actress
- Additional Crew
Born in 1950, Sylviane Margollé was a child and teenage actress who
started her career at the age of 6. Her sad little face was used to
great effect by many stage, TV and cinema directors, including the best
(Jean-Paul Le Chanois,
Jean Renoir,
Henri Verneuil) and, at the theatre,
Michel Bouquet and
Jean-Louis Barrault), including on
American television (in an episode of "Combat!"), including in leading
roles (in Alain Boudet's "Cosette'). One of
her best roles was that of Sophie, the little girl unjustly suspected
by the group she is part of,
Jacques R. Villa's cruel tale
Les petits chats (1960). She was
also excellent as Cosette in the TV film of the same name and as Marie,
Jean-Paul Belmondo''s desperate daughter in
Un singe en hiver (1962). Later
on, the former little girl with a sad face turned to
post-synchronization where, thanks to her soft voice, she once again
worked wonders. She can be heard in the French version of "Goldorak",
"Candy Candy" and many other series, live or animated, and as the
French voice of several American actresses, such as
Sally Field,
Jamie Lee Curtis,
Melissa Sue Anderson and
Cheryl Ladd. By the late 1970s, she quit
acting, got married and moved to the USA with her husband. She died
there prematurely, at age 54, after a surgical operation.
