JAKARTA - Legendary French actor Jean-Louis Trintignant, whose career began with Brigitte Bardot through the film And God Created Woman (1956), died on Friday, June 17 local time at the age of 91 years.

"He is someone special," said his ex-wife, Nadine Trintignant, quoted by Reuters on Saturday, June 18.

Trintignant received the Best Actor Award at the 1969 Cannes Festival for Costa Gavras' film "Z", and the Cesar Award for Best Actor in 2013 for director Michael Haneke's film "Amour".

Along with Jean-Pierre Léaud and the late Jean-Paul Belmondo, Trintignant was one of the main actors of the French New Wave movement.

He has appeared in more than 130 films, including the 1966 Cannes Palme d'Or-winning film A Man and a Woman, a film by Claude Lelouch, also famous for its music by Francis Lai.

He suffered a personal tragedy in 2003 after his daughter Marie Trintignant, also an actress, died at the age of 41 after she was fatally beaten by her boyfriend, Bertrand Cantat, the leader of the French rock band Noir Désir.

Cantat was convicted of murder and released from prison in 2007.
