Vincent Rottiers

Actor · Born June 17, 1986 (40) · Évry, Essonne, France

A rising star in French cinema, this young actor has received three nominations at the César, the highest Awards in the French Film Industry. He was born June 17, 1986 in Evry, in Essonne. As a schoolboy, he took acting classes displaying an early interest in comedy. It was a chance casting at age 15 for the main role of The Devils (2002) that brought him to notice. His performance gained him a Gold Plaque at the Chicago International Film Festival in 2002, as well as a number of other roles playing teenagers. Since then he has made 35 feature films from a variety of genres. In 2007, he earned his first César nomination for Most Promising Actor in The Passenger opposite Julie Depardieu. His second César nomination, for Most Promising Actor as well, was for his performance in I'm Glad My Mother is Alive (2009), which is based on a true story. His third César Nomination for Best Supporting Actor was for his performance of Brahim in Dheepan (2015) by outstanding French director Jacques Audiard, which won the Palme d'Or at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival. He has more recently been cast in the feature film Pompei (2019) by Anna Falguères and John Shank, which was in selection at TIFF 2019 in Toronto.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
