Certainly one of France's supreme farceurs in the classic tradition, comedian Pierre Richard was born to an upper crust family with an embarrassing riches of middle names as he was christened Pierre Richard Maurice Charles Leopold Defays. Working and building up his trade at the Paris Music Hall in the early years, he appeared in small movie roles throughout most of the 60s. In the 70s, however, he aimed his genius directly towards film and succeeded beyond the wildest expectations. Directing and co-writing many of his slapstick vehicles, his characters often have taken on an hilariously guileless persona and, coupled with his innate gift for klutzy physical comedy, have become an audience favorite for nearly four decades. His superior work in Distracted (1970) and Les malheurs d'Alfred (1972) was immediately recognized and this led to the international crossover hit The Tall Blond Man with One Black Shoe (1972) in which Richard played a naive, innocent concert musician plucked by chance to become a superspy on a top secret mission. A potent association in the 1960s and 1970s with actor/producer/director Yves Robert and the 1980s with writer/director Francis Veber and actor Gérard Depardieu produced several comedy classics: Alexandre le bienheureux (1968), The Return of the Tall Blond Man (1974), La chèvre (1981), The ComDads (1983) and The Fugitives (1986). Many of Richard's classic comedies, including Le jouet (1976), have spawned Hollywood remakes and imitations, though most pale compared to the originals.

Pierre Rumpf is one of four siblings and was born in Boston, MA. He is of French, Swiss and Irish descent. His Paris-born father immigrated to the United States in 1940 after witnessing the Nazis marching down the streets of Paris during WWII. A native New Englander, Pierre grew-up in the Norman Rockwellian, Oceanside community of Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts. Pierre's first experiences acting included plays in elementary school, and during junior high school, the role of "Winthrop" in the musical, Music Man. After graduating with a B.S. in Criminal Justice, Pierre served in the U.S. Army National Guard. Pierre worked professionally as an attorney, real estate broker and police officer. In 2016, Pierre answered a casting call for "real police officers" to be "specialized" extras in the movie, Patriots Day, with Mark Wahlberg and Kevin Bacon. Specialized, because they wanted real police, and because in some scenes, real firearms would be fired. Pierre was hired by Boston Casting and while portraying two different SWAT Operators (FBI & Boston Police), and one ATF Agent on-set, he was "bitten-by-the-bug". Pierre knew after one movie as an extra, that he never wanted to be in the background again, but rather, a principal actor. Interestingly, Pierre was thereafter invited to perform a monologue for the owner of Boston Casting in December of 2016. He opted to write his own. After performing his monologue (which was well-received), Pierre: Began attending acting classes at Boston Casting, CP Casting, and The Steve Blackwood Sessions; wrote his resume; and, had professional head shots done. Immediately, Pierre started receiving invitations to auditions for films and commercials. To gain film experience, during 2017, Pierre simultaneously starred in student films produced by BFA Acting undergraduate students at Emerson and Harvard, as well as portraying "Journalist Howard" in a documentary short called, Half the History - Shirley Chisolm: Catalyst for Change, which was produced by the LA-based, Five Sisters Productions. In 2018, Pierre then landed the lead role of "King Herod" in the Biblical drama/action (short) film, A Blood Throne, produced by the Garcia Brothers and Mount Harvest. After the screenplay finished in the quarter finals of the Bluecat Screenplay Competition (71st out of 762 submissions, globally), A Blood Throne won numerous awards at Christian and secular film festivals, globally, including Best Picture, Best Director, as well as others. Pierre was nominated for Best Actor in a Leading role. After having wrapped his very dark and evil character, King Herod, Pierre wanted to act on the other end of the spectrum - in a comedy. He then starred as "Captain Oliver Schilling" in Narrow Street Films feature-length, period (1906) comedy production, The Dinner Party, as well as "William" in Mount Harvest's, King Cobras: Men's Group, a TV comedy that won a Telly Award (Gold), beating Geico, which won the Silver Telly Award, and AARP, which won the Bronze Telly Award. Pierre also starred as the corrupt "Judge Trevis" in Selan Films', Don't Say My Name - an impactful film about child trafficking that has won praise globally. Pierre's looking forward to what's coming down-the-road . . .
Born on November 8, 1964 in Tunisia, Pierre Salvadori studied literature and cinema at the Censier site of the New Sorbonne University of Paris. He also followed a training in drama. He wrote his first screenplay in 1989 which, four years later, became the basis of Cible émouvante (1993), his first feature. About ten films followed, which confirmed qualities already present in "Cible émouvante" : sympathy for antiheroes, lightness often mixed with gravity (a lesson learned from his master Ernst Lubitsch), finely chiseled dialogs, the use of great actors who serve the text wonderfully (François Cluzet, Marie Trintigant, Guillaume Depardieu, José Garcia, Daniel Auteuil, Nathalie Baye, Catherine Deneuve)... His films, which vary from ultralight comedy (Hors de prix (2006)) to the darkest of films noirs (Les marchands de sable (2000)) all explore themes which are close to his heart : friendship and betrayal, truth and lies, seduction and devotion, adjustment or not to society... His last work to-date (Dans la cour (2014) synthesizes to perfection the various trends that cross his work. Deftly mixing comedy (Antoine's offbeat behavior) with drama (Mathilde and Antoine's distress), lightness (the subtle dialogs) with gravity (how to fit into a decaying society), social commentary (France's economic situation) with zaniness (the eccentric neighbors), interpreted by two great actors (Catherine Deneuve in the difficult role of a woman who loses her balance and Gustave Kenvern as the depressed caretaker who tries to help her), Salvadori's masterpiece succeeds in every department and augurs well for the second part of his career.
