Françoise Lebrun played one of the three leads in The Mother and the Whore, a three-and-a-half hour film consisting almost entirely of conversation, and her final monologue is among the most sustained pieces of screen acting in French cinema. She has worked with Philippe Garrel and Gaspar Noé since.
