Complete filmography
BiographyMarion Vernoux started out as a screenwriter on the film "Pacific Palissade" by Bernard Schmitt starring Sophie Marceau. She went on to direct "Pierre qui roule," a TV drama for the Arte television channel, in which Marianne Denicourt and Benoît Régent played the lead roles. In 1992, she wrote and directed her first feature film, "Personne ne m'aime" (“Nobody Loves Me”), a road movie starring Lio, Bernadette Lafont, Bulle Ogier, Michèle Laroque, and Jean-Pierre Léaud. This film showed her increasing focus on romantic relationships, the central theme of her work. She then directed "Love, etc" (1996), a film that offers a new look at the subject of the love triangle, here formed by Charlotte Gainsbourg, Yvan Attal, and Charles Berling. In 1999, she made "Rien à faire" ("Empty Days"), in which she uses a supermarket cart to brings together a man (Patrick Dell'isola) and a woman (Valéria Bruni-Tedeschi) who have nothing in common other than being unemployed. This film was presented in the Official Competition at the 1999 Venice Film Festival, and won Vernoux the Gold Medal from the Italian Senate. "Reines d'un jour" ("A Hell of a Day"), released in 2001, features Karin Viard and Hélène Fillières. In 2004, she directed "A Boire," set in a ski resort.
