Born in Argentina, raised in France, and eventually transitioning into American film, Bejo began her on-screen career with appearances on French TV throughout the late '90s. After nabbing the starring role of Sophie on the series Un et un Font Six, Bejo brought movies into her resume as well, prominently appearing in 2000's Most Promising Young Actress. She soon crossed the pond to play Christiana in the American movie A Knight's Tale as well. Bejo continued to appear in French movies like 24 Hours in the Life of a Woman and 2006's OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies, eventually catching the attention of American audiences again for her role in the 2011 critical smash The Artist. A throwback to the early days of film, the movie transcended the language barrier quite easily, as it was silent. The film racked up numerous awards, as did Bejo for her performance -- including an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress. ~ Cammila Albertson, Rovi
