Jean-Louis Richard est un acteur, réalisateur et scénariste français, né le 17 mai 1927 à Paris où il est mort le 3 juin 2012. De son vrai nom Jean-Marius Richard, il est élève au Conservatoire d'art dramatique de Paris avant de débuter comme comédien dans la troupe de Louis Jouvet. Très lié au milieu de la Nouvelle Vague, il apparaît au cinéma dans À bout de souffle (1960) de Jean-Luc Godard, Jules et Jim (1962) et La Peau douce (1964) et Le Dernier Métro (1980) de François Truffaut. Il devient également l'un des coscénaristes attitrés de ce dernier, participant à l'écriture de La Peau douce (1964), Fahrenheit 451 (1966), La mariée était en noir (1968) et La Nuit américaine (1973). Qualifié par son ami et collègue Philippe Le Guay de scénariste «destructeur», pour sa capacité à «traquer les faiblesses d'écriture», il signe en 1974 le scénario du célèbre film érotique Emmanuelle, réalisé par Just Jaeckin d'après le roman éponyme d'Emmanuelle Arsan. En 1995, il écrit avec Philippe Le Guay et Brigitte Roüan le scénario de L'Année Juliette. Il a été le premier époux de Jeanne Moreau (de 1949 à 1951), avec laquelle il a eu un fils, Jérôme décédé en 2019. La relation compliquée du couple a inspiré au compositeur Serge Rezvani la chanson Le Tourbillon de la vie, que François Truffaut a ensuite incluse dans son film Jules et Jim (1962). Atteint de la maladie d'Alzheimer, il se retire du monde du spectacle au début des années 2000. Source: Article "Jean-Louis Richard" de Wikipédia en français, soumis à la licence CC-BY-SA 3.0.

Michael Trent Reznor (born May 17, 1965) is an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, composer, producer, actor, leader of industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails, and member of How to Destroy Angels alongside his wife, Mariqueen Maandig, and Atticus Ross. He was previously associated with bands Option 30, Exotic Birds, and Tapeworm, among others. Reznor left Interscope Records in 2007, and is now an independent musician. Reznor began creating music early in his life, and cites his Western Pennsylvania childhood as an early influence. After being involved with a number of synthesizer-based bands in the mid-80s, Reznor gained employment at Right Track Studios and began creating his own music during the studio's closing hours under the moniker Nine Inch Nails. Reznor's first release as Nine Inch Nails, Pretty Hate Machine (1989), was a commercial and critical success, and he has since released seven major studio releases. Outside of Reznor's chief project Nine Inch Nails, he has contributed to many other artists' albums, including Marilyn Manson and Saul Williams. In 1997, Reznor appeared in Time magazine's list of the year's most influential people, and Spin magazine described him as "the most vital artist in music." Reznor, in collaboration with Atticus Ross, composed the score for The Social Network, a 2010 theatrical film about the founding of Facebook. The duo won the 2010 Golden Globe for Best Original Score and the Academy Award for Best Original Score for their collaboration. The soundtrack album was released by The Null Corporation, Reznor's own independent record label. Earlier this year, Reznor announced that the pair would once again be collaborating with David Fincher by composing the score to the US film adaptation of the novel The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, set for release in late 2011.
