Can you give me any interesting facts about Audrey Tautou?
Here you go! Tautou was born in the Puy-de-Dôme département of Auvergne, and was raised in Montluçon in nearby Allier, Auvergne. Her father is a dental surgeon and her mother is a teacher. After the premiere of the film Amélie (for which she received phenomenal amounts of paparazzi and press coverage) she travelled to the jungles of Indonesia to help with the preservation of a monkey sanctuary. Tautou showed an interest in comedy at an early age and started her acting lessons at the Cours Florent. This theatrical institution is highly prestigious and she is one of several famous actors to have passed through its doors (others including Muriel Robin, Daniel Auteuil and Guillaume Canet). After graduating she went on to star in some of French cinema’s biggest and most famous films. [edit] Career In 1998, Tautou participated in a Star Search-like competition sponsored by Canal+ called “Jeunes Premiers” (The Young Debut) and won Best Young Actress at the 9th Béziers Festival of Young Actors
