vincent_perez's Journal

Blurb from Wikipedia:
Vincent Pérez (born June 10, 1962) is a Swiss actor from Lausanne, Switzerland. Of Spanish and German descent, he is the second of three children. He is currently married to Karine Silla, and has four children: daughter Iman, twins Pablo & Inès, and a stepdaughter, Roxanne, whose father is Vincent's co-star from Cyrano de Bergerac, Gérard Depardieu.

At age eighteen he left Switzerland for France. Before studying acting, he considered a career as an artist. But eventually commenced acting studies in Geneva, followed by the Paris Conservatoire, alma mater of Jean-Paul Belmondo and Kai Wong, and completed his training at L'École des Amandiers in Nanterre.

He plays the equivalent role of Vincent D'Onofrio's Detective Robert "Bobby" Goren in a French remake of Law & Order: Criminal Intent on TF1. Paris Enquêtes Criminelles (Paris Criminal Section) stars Pérez as Lieutenant Vincent Revel. His partner is Lieutenant Claire Savigny, played by Sandrine Rigaux, and their boss is Commissaire Bonnefoy played by Jacques Pater. The show has become one of the biggest hits on TF1 and a crossover was planned for April 2007, but has yet to happen.

My experience of the man is he seems to have an affinity for playing dead people. It's possible I've seen him in other things and didn't register it at the time, I've only recently come to realize he played the vampire Marius in the gotesquely innaccurate adaptation of Queen of the Damned...which while horribly wrong is still fun to watch. First thing I saw him in was The Crow: City of Angels. Then there was the adaptation of one of Dean Koontz novels that sadly didn't develop into a series but the 2·hour pilot episode was wonderful...Frankenstein.

I've seen him as a vampire, a ressurected corse turned spirit of vengeance, and as a monster built from the bodies of deceased madmen and criminals who developed a soul.

Kind of an interesting pattern.

These are a variation of the rules I setup for House·of·Skin, and kinda sorta Comix too in a very unofficial capacity:

• This is not a photo community by design. I suspect fans of this celebrity will want to post images or icons or any other number of visual mediums and that's okay with me. Just be aware that there will be posts here that have no pictures in them at all going in. You can complain about it if you like...but it probably won't do any good.


• Be you male or female or something else, it's a funny old world, one thing that a good number of us fans have in common is a desire to see our idols naked. I, being male, understandably do not have a problem with this. This community is not specifically about naked shots of the celebrity in question...but if you happen to have access to some and want to post them you do what you feel is best.


• The friends filter (Clicky!) option is your friend! This community is, potentially, not work safe so it's best that if you're a member you don't view your friendslist as a whole depending on where you are. Got a complaint from a guy once because his kid sister was in the room and she almost saw something. You really shouldn't be viewing this community around little kids! Also not at work, in church, at the busstop, or while operating heavy equipment (No that does not count as heavy equipment!)


• It is tricky for me to make sure you're all above age, I lead a quirky life, and I'm thinking on suggesting with the next upgrade the tech folks of LJ include birthdays in a directory search. Every couple months I'll go through the member list if I'm not at work and I've got a few hours to kill but so far I've only had to remove accounts that have been deleted for whatever reason. To be on the safe side, even though the system has no way of confirming this, have your birthdate and year listed on your user info. I may not check very often but I do check every so often.


• We're not big on the use of LJ·cuts here so long as you're posting single images. If you're posting multiples you need to use an LJ·cut. If you're posting an image and a video you need an LJ·cut for one of them. The only real way around this is if you're using thumbnail images. If you don't know what those are then don't worry about it. Images do not necessarily need to be behind an LJ·cut unless there's more than one or the one is excessively huge; best guideline there is that up and down big is okay but left to right big is bad...nothing wider than 600 pixels is a good guideline.


• Try to be polite...you would not believe the number of complaints about comments that are taken to be insults but may've been critiques that could've been phrased better. Any outright and clear abuse of another member and you're outta here. It's okay to criticize, and flirt to whatever point the person posting doesn't mind, but let's try to keep stuff from getting harsh. We're just trying to have a good time and appreciate what's being shown.


• There are members here who periodically post images from their pay sites they have access to. If you see something you like but can't see the rest of the gallery it came from you shouldn't complain about it; enjoy what you get. If you like it that much then maybe you should become a paying member of whoever's site it came from.


• The moderator (that's me) has the end say about what posts stay and what posts go. I've periodically deleted stuff I thought was innapproriate...though not that often. I don't warn folks either...stuff just goes away.

If you want to advertise any kind of community please do so at We·Need·a·Life and not here. I used to allow advertising in any of my communities if it kept to the theme of that community but I'd like to cut down on that a bit...until it dwindles to nothing.
