| Charlotte Rampling was born in Sturmer, England in 1945. The daughter of a British Colonel who became a NATO commander and a painter, she was educated at Jeanne d'Arc Academie pour Jeunnes Filles in Versailles and at the exclusive St. Hilda's school in Bushley, England. She was a model before entering films in Richard Lester's The Knack in 1965, followed by roles in Georgy Girl (1966) and Luchino Visconti's The Damned (1969). Rampling is best known for her role in Liliana Cavani's The Night Porter (1974), where she played a concentration camp survivor who is reunited with the Nazi guard (Dirk Bogarde) who tortured her throughout her captivity. In 1974, she co-starred with Sean Connery in John Boorman's science fiction adventure Zardoz, with Robert Mitchum in Farewell My Lovely, with Woody Allen in his 1980 film Stardust Memories and with Paul Newman in Sidney Lumet's The Verdict. An actress always willing to take on bold and meaningful roles, Rampling had perhaps the most off-beat one in Nagisa Oshima's 1986 comedy Max My Love as Margaret, a woman in love with a chimpanzee. She also voices video games, such as The Ring. |
