Paul Barge is a French actor born on 11 September 1941 in Ferryville
After a few TV roles and a supporting role as a young policeman in Tony Richardson's Mademoiselle (1966), he played the central leading role of Edmond Dantès in the 1968 Dumas adaptation The Return of Monte Cristo alongside stars such as Claude Jade, Anny Duperey, Pierre Brasseur and Michel Auclair. His film career continued with the sculptor Paul in The Invitation (with Joanna Shimkus, Michel Piccoli and Jacques Perrin). In the thriller drama L'Etrangleur, he played the thief ‘Jackal’, who steals from the women previously murdered by Jacques Perrin. This was followed by theatre adaptations and literary adaptations such as Shakespeare's As You Like It (with Jean-Pierre Aumont) and Niccolò Machiavelli's La Mandragore (again with Claude Jade). He regained popularity on television with the series Les gens de Mogador in 1973, playing the leading male role of Numa in the third generation of the family saga alongside Brigitte Fossey. In the 1970s with Isabelle Huppert in Plaies et bosses, in the 1980s in commercial fare such as Édouard Molinaro's Pour cent briques, t'as plus rien... (with Daniel Auteuil) and in historical dramas such as L'Affaire Caillaux (with Brigitte Fossey), he starred alongside his multiple partner Claude Jade in the series Cap des Pins from 1998 to 2000.
In 1978, he directed his own film, a comedy called Le Paradis des riches.
