Philipe, Gérard (1922–59), French actor, who studied at the Paris Conservatoire, and made his début in 1943 in
Giraudoux's Sodome et Gomorrhe, first attracting attention in 1945 in the title-role of
Camus's Caligula. In 1951, by which time he had made an outstanding reputation both on stage and screen, he joined the
Théâtre National Populaire (TNP) under
Vilar and gave a superb performance as the hero of Corneille's
Le Cid. He continued to act for the TNP until his sudden death at 37 (he was buried in the costume he wore as Le Cid), and his fame and popularity did much to attract a young audience. Among the plays in which he appeared in Paris, at the
Avignon Festival, and on tour in Russia, the USA, and Canada, were
Kleist's Prinz Friedrich von Homburg (1951),
Musset's Lorenzaccio (1952),
Hugo's Ruy Blas, and Shakespeare's
Richard II (both 1954). In 1958 and 1959 he was seen in
Les Caprices de Marianne and
On ne badine pas avec l'amour, both by Musset. He also played Eilif in the first French production of
Brecht's Mother Courage (1951).
