Main character
In the film Fantomas, actor Jean Maret played the main character. Let's talk about it in more detail. Jean Marais is a French actor, stuntman, sculptor, artist, writer and director. Born in 1913, December 11, in Cherbourg. He played the heroic roles of brave and courageous characters in adventure films. Being in excellent physical shape, he independently performed various tricks - he jumped from bridges, as well as from windows, rode on horseback, fought on swords. The directors specially arranged the shots so that the viewer saw that the actor did everything himself. He had a winning texture - muscular legs and arms, a harmonious powerful athletic physique, a bold and courageous face, pronounced strong-willed features and a noble look. In the best roles, he created the images of adventurers or knights, people of an indestructible spirit. In addition to artistic talent, this man possessed the ability to poetry, painting and artistic sculpture. Pablo Picasso, seeing the early work of the actor, was surprised. He wondered how a person with such a talent as a sculptor can spend time working in the theater and filming a movie. In the Montmartre district in Paris, a monument was erected to Marcel Aime, the writer. The sculpture was created by his friend Jean Mare.
