Romain Duris
Romain Duris (French pronunciation: [ʁɔmɛ̃ dyʁis] ⓘ; born 28 May 1974) is a French actor.
He is best known for his role in Cédric Klapisch's Spanish Apartment trilogy, which consists of L'Auberge Espagnole (2002), Russian Dolls (2005), and Chinese Puzzle (2013). He has also gained wide recognition for The Beat That My Heart Skipped (2005), and various other roles since then.
Duris was born in Paris, son of a father who is an engineer-architect and a mother who is a dancer. His father is related to Armand-Gaston Camus and his wife; the French revolutionist was an archivist who founded the Archives nationales. His mother is a descendant of 18th-century Swedish painter Alexander Roslin and his wife. Duris has a sister, pianist Caroline Duris, who played on the soundtrack of the film The Beat That My Heart Skipped (2005), in which he acted.
Duris studied arts at university but first decided to follow a career in music, forming a jazz-funk band.[citation needed] Music remains a major interest. Before going into acting, he started an acid-jazz band in which he was a drummer.[citation needed] In 1995, he was featured in a pop video for singer Princess Erika, "Faut qu'j'travaille" (I Need To Work), where he played the role of a small-time gangster.
Duris lives in Paris near La Bastille, with his actress girlfriend Olivia Bonamy.[citation needed] They have two sons Luigi, born 10 February 2009, and another son born in 2013.
In 1993, Duris was noticed by a casting director who saw him waiting in a queue. He offered the younger man a part in the Cédric Klapisch film Le péril jeune (1994).
Duris's additional collaborations with Klapisch include the Spanish Apartment Trilogy (L'Auberge Espagnole, The Russian Dolls, and Chinese Puzzle). He played a French exchange student Xavier Rousseau, which was one of his best-known roles because of the trilogy.
Duris gained international recognition for his performance in the film The Beat That My Heart Skipped (2005), directed by Jacques Audiard. He won the Lumière Award for Best Actor and received his first nomination for the César Award for Best Actor.
