[edit] Biography
His films are notable for their loose yet aesthetically rigorous style and for his somewhat elliptical editing, which emphasizes an unsentimental worldview. He frequently cast Gerard Depardieu and Sandrine Bonnaire in lead roles. Pialat's feature-length debut, 1969's L'Enfance Nue (The Naked Childhood), won the Prix Jean Vigo. He won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival in 1987 for Sous le soleil de Satan (Under the Sun of Satan).
