Delphine Seyrig was a french film actress and a film director.
During the sixties and seventies, Seyrig worked with such directors as François Truffaut, Luis Buñuel, Marguerite Duras, and Fred Zinnemann and Alain Resnais. She achieved recognition for both her stage and film work, and was named best actress at the Venice Film Festival for her role in Resnais' Muriel ou Le temps d'un retour (1963). She played many diverse roles, and because she was fluent in French, English and German, she appeared in films in all three languages, including a number of Hollywood productions.
She died in Paris in 1990, aged 58, apparently from lung cancer.
