Biography

Jacques Lalande, born Jacques Gross on October 5, 1927 in Paris, was a French actor whose career spanned nearly forty years. Trained in theatre, he quickly became a familiar face in both film and television, where he portrayed a wide range of subtle and finely crafted supporting roles. He appeared in notable films of the 1960s such as La Belle vie, Is Paris Burning? and Ho!, though it was on television that he established himself most enduringly. He took part in numerous police and historical series, including Les Cinq Dernières Minutes, Maigret, Les Rois maudits, Les Compagnons de Baal, as well as the historical drama Mazarin in 1978.

Mazarin

The series Mazarin (1978) recounts the rise of Jules Mazarin, first an Italian diplomat and later France’s chief minister after Richelieu. The story shows how he earns the trust of Anne of Austria and becomes the political mentor of the young Louis XIV. Over the course of the episodes, Mazarin faces court intrigues, the hostility of powerful nobles, and the turmoil of the Fronde, which threatens royal authority and forces him into several periods of exile.
