A collection of photos
from some of her best-known performances.

"L'Homme de Rio" (1964)
("That Man From Rio")

International French New Wave star Jean-Paul Belmondo plays Adrien Dufourquet and Françoise Dorléac is his girlfriend Agnès - they encounter danger as they attempt to retrieve a figurine stolen by thugs!

"Le Peau Douce" (1964)
("The Soft Skin")

Françoise Dorléac stars as Nicole, an airline hostess who gets herself involved in a tragic love affair with a married man.

Nicole struggles over the shame of her lover Pierre (Jean Desailly) treating her in public as a non-entity to hide his passion for her before his friends.

Nicole in a quieter moment of contemplation of her position in Pierre's life.

"Where the Spies Are" (1965)

Double agent Vikki (Françoise Dorléac) is a seductive spy on a quest to save the life of a Middle Eastern prince.

Intrigue and interest - Vikki meets up with Jason Love (David Niven), debonair British agent. (What did you expect? It's David Niven!)

"Genghis Khan" (1965)

Françoise Dorléac as Tartar princess Bortei, the object of the mighty Khan's affections.

Jamuga (Stephen Boyd) is the Khan's greatest rival...in war and love!

"Cul de Sac" (1966)
(aka "Blind Alley")

Teresa (Françoise Dorléac) is the bored and sexy young wife of a middle-aged and squeamish weekend artist whose lonely island home is invaded by gangsters.

Teresa and her husband George (Donald Pleasence) are a mismatched couple in every way - Teresa is bold and brash, George is weak and cringing.

The boredom of life on a rock in the sea off Northumberland takes a sudden turn for the dangerous when Teresa and George have their castle invaded by coarse, brutish American gangster Dickie (Lionel Stander).

But the price for this kind of excitement means imprisonment...and no way to escape the insufferable visiting neighbors off the island! Teresa tries to ease herself by playing records.

"Les Demoiselles de Rochefort" (1967)
("The Young Girls of Rochefort")

"Nous sommes deux soeurs jumelles"...The beautiful blond Delphine (Catherine Deneuve) and the ravishing redhead Solange (Françoise Dorléac) are twin sisters who dream of romance and fame during a summer in the lovely city of Rochefort.

"Billion Dollar Brain" (1967)

Anya (Françoise Dorléac) is a mysterious beauty involved in a joint British / Soviet attempt to stop a mad American mega-millionaire from starting an atomic war.

Super spy Harry Palmer (Michael Caine) is getting fed up with Anya's lack of candor and honesty.
