Micheline Presle

PRESLE’S KNELL

French actress Micheline Presle has died aged 101. The last surviving star of pre-WWII French cinema, she quickly caught eyes with The Devil in the Flesh, where the plot of her nurse having an affair with a student while her husband was off at war provoked much conversation. She proved popular enough to enjoy a brief Hollywood career in tandem with her French one where she acted opposite Errol Flynn and Paul Newman. Her daughter Tonie Marshall was noted as the first female director to win a César and predeceased her by four years. Presle was picked by four teams.
