Fernandel
(Fernand Contandin / May 8, 1903, Marseille, Bouches-du-Rhône, France - February 26, 1971, Paris, France)
   At age five, he performed the part of a small soldier in the play Marceau ou les Enfants de la République. Having trained as a music hall comedian and singer, he made his film debut in 1930 (Le Blanc et le Noir, Robert Florey, Marc Allégret).
