Claude Autant-Lara Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
Claude Autant-Lara was born on August 5, 1901 in Luzarches, Val-d'Oise, France as Claude Autant. He was a director and writer, known for Four Bags Full (1956), Rouge et noir (1954) and The Red Inn (1951). He was married to Ghislaine Auboin. He died on February 5, 2000 in Antibes, Alpes-Maritimes, France.
The director must consider himself surrounded by enemies; what I mean is that, in a business where the taste of one man must prevail, he is surrounded by people who want to do nothing but improve their own tastes.
