Hubert Noël

Born 1924-07-22 · Le Havre, Seine-Inférieure [now Seine-Maritime], France

Hubert Noël (1924–1987) was a French film actor. A student at the Cours Simon, he made his theatrical debut with Charles Dullin in L'Avare, then moved on to the Centre Dramatique de l'Est, the Théâtre du Vieux-Colombier and the Théâtre du Gymnase, with prestigious partners such as Marie Bell. An actor with a pleasing physique, he played secondary roles in films, often not very rewarding, as troubled, self-interested characters or superficial, fickle lovers. He played Philippe de Nevers in André Hunebelle's Le Bossu in 1959, Danielle Darrieux's lover in Julien Duvivier's Le Diable et les Dix Commandements in 1962, Marina Vlady's lover in Christian-Jaque's Les Bonnes Causes and Dany Carrel's lover in André Cayatte's Piège pour Cendrillon in 1965. From the 1970s onwards, he only appeared in third roles, such as a bank clerk in Nicolas Gessner's La Petite Fille au bout du chemin in 1976. He specialized in dubbing, lending his voice to Tony Curtis, Elvis Presley and Gardner McKay in the TV series Aventures dans les îles, broadcast by Radiodiffusion-télévision française from February 11, 1961.
