Line Noro
Aline Simone Noro, known as Line Noro, born February 22, 1900 in Houdelaincourt (Meuse) and died November 4, 1985 in the 13th arrondissement of Paris, is a French actress. Line Noro is the granddaughter of the communard couple Jean-Baptiste and Émilie Noro, originally from Lyon. In the theatre, Line Noro has notably worked with Jacques Copeau, Charles Dullin and Louis Jouvet. For more than twenty years, she was a resident of the Comédie-Française (from 1945 to 1966). Actress of composition roles, also specializing in "weeping roles", she played in the cinema in about fifty films between 1928 and 1956, among which: "Pépé le Moko" by Julien Duvivier (1937), "Goupi Mains Rouges " by Jacques Becker (1943), "La Symphonie Pastorale" by Jean Delannoy (1946) or even "Meurtres?" by Richard Pottier (1950). Line Noro was the wife of director André Berthomieu (died in 1960). Due to sight problems, she left the stage and the screens in the 1960s. She died in 1985 following a long illness.
