The actor Christian Marin was well-known as a comedian in the first
place but he also impersonated serious cahracters time and again during
his long-standing career.
He began at the theater where he finally was spotted for the film. It
followed smaller and bigger parts in movies like "Les tortillards" (60),
"La bella Américaine" (61), "Le crime ne paie pas" (62), "Le Magot
de Josefa" (63), "Pouic-Pouic" (63) and "Allez France!" (64).
When he impersonated the figure of Marechal des Logis Albert Merlot
in the cult film "Le gendarme de St. Tropez" (64) at Louis
de Funès' side, this marked his breakthrough and he became very
popular to a huge public. Christian Marin also impersonated this role in
the three sequels "Le gendarme à New York" (65), "Le gendarme se
marie" (68) and "Le gendarme en balade" (70).
Other well-known movies of the 60's were "Les copains" (64), "Le chant
du monde" (65), "Le mois le plus beau" (68) and "Faites donc plaisir aux
amis" (69).
Christian Marin retired slowly from the big screen from the 70's but
he was still busy for TV productions now and then. But his great passion
belongs exclusively to the theater for several decades.
To his last cinematical works belong "Der Kurier des Zaren" (70), "La
dernière bourrée à Paris" (73), "Le commando des chauds
lapins" (75), the serial "Les folies Offenbach" (77), "Le voyage du Hollandais"
