Claude Lelouch

Claude Lelouch was born in Paris on 30 October 1937, to a father from a Jewish family of Algeria. During the Occupation, his mother hid him in cinemas to escape the Gestapo. He was a newsreel reporter, notably in the Soviet Union, then did his military service in the army's film service. He later founded his own production company, Les Films 13, to finance his films, and has directed some fifty of them.
