The actress Madeleine Guitty was born as Marguerite-Madeleine Guichard.
She
began her acting career about 1888 at the theater where she often
impersonated character roles instead of the beautiful leading actress
because of her appearance.
She soon became a demanded actress and acted at different theaters and variétés.
The new arising medium film soon spotted Madeleine Gutty and she already acted in front of the camera from 1909.
To
her first movies belong "Vitellius" (10), "Le pot de confitures" (11),
"Les femmes députées" (12), "Don Quichotte" (13), "La momie" (13), "Les
somnambules" (14) and "Fauvette" (18).
She also was engaged for
support roles in movies and she often impersonated market-women,
housemaids or cooks. The roles of a ordinary woman seemed to be
tailor-made for her.
In the 20s she took part in other silent
movies like "La révoltée" (20), "La fille des chiffonniers" (22), "Les
mystères de Paris" (22), "Geneviève" (23), "La loup-garou" (24),
"Faubourg Montmartre" (25), "Muche" (27) and "Croquette" (28).
The
sound film of the 30s offered her again numerous engagements in
well-known movies which made her face even more familiar to the French
audience.
To her works of those years belong "La meilleure bobonne"
(30), "Une histoire entre mille" (31), "La bande à Bouboule" (31),
"Cette vieille canaille" (33), "La voix sans visage" (33), "Incognito"
(34), "Sans famille" (34), "Zouzou" (34), "L'impossible aveu" (35),
"Barcarolle" (35), "La fille de Madame Angot" (35) and "Les deux
gamines" (36).
