Frances de la Tour/Madame Maxime

Full Name: Frances de la Tour

Birthday: July 30, 1944

City of Birth: Bovingdon, Hertfordshire, England, UK

Siblings: Brother- Andy de la Tour (also an actor)

Biography: Frances de la Tour was born on July 30, 1944 in Bovingdon, Hertfordshire, England, UK. She attended drama school where she received theatrical training.

Interesting Facts:
- She played a female Hamlet in the 1970s at a time when women in the UK had a reputation to follow

Quotes:
- On acting: "I don't think acting is a question of becoming somebody else. It is a question of becoming your fullest self through the part. It is not an ego trip. You allow the character to enter you, but the moments when you are closest to it are the moments when you are most in touch with yourself. Whenever I give acting classes my approach is the opposite of what is regarded as Method acting. What the actor feels is important, but what the actor feels about the part is not."

The first role that he landed was in a stage production at the Abbey Theatre. He made his film debut in the movie, "The Field." After a few more roles here and there, he landed a regular role on the television series "Lifeboat." His big break was in the movie "Braveheart," in which he played Hamish.

The first time I went to see an agent in America, he told me, 'You're too fat, too old, not good-looking enough' - that I'd never make it basically."
