Acting
René Alié was a French actor and singer with a rich yet discreet career, marked by more than forty film appearances. He began working in the 1930s, quickly establishing himself as a reliable supporting actor in French cinema. He notably appeared in Marcel Carné’s Hôtel du Nord, portraying a hot‑tempered criminal. His filmography spans over three decades, including roles in popular productions such as Henri Decoin’s Razzia sur la chnouf and Gilles Grangier’s Archimède le clochard. Active across film, theatre, and television, he worked continuously until his final screen appearance in René Gainville’s L’Associé
