Biography: life and films
Maurice Ronet's real name was Maurice Julien Marie Robinet. He was born in Nice, France, on 13th April 1927, the only child of two professional stage actors, Émile Ronet and Paule de Breuil. Influenced by his family's theatrical background, Ronet made up his mind to become an actor at an early age and first appeared on stage, along with his parents, in a production of Sacha Guitry's Deux couverts, when he was just 14. Two years later, he was taking drama lessons from Julien Bertheau, Maurice Donneaud and Bernard Blier at the Centre du Spectacle de la Rue-Blanche in Paris. In 1944, he was admitted to France's leading drama school, the Paris Conservatoire, where he studied under such luminaries as Jean-Louis Barrault, René Simon and Maurice Leroy.

1969 French film
La Piscine (The Swimming Pool)[4] is a 1969 psychological thriller film directed by Jacques Deray, starring Alain Delon, Romy Schneider, Maurice Ronet, and Jane Birkin.
Set in summertime on the Côte d'Azur, it is a drama of sexual jealousy and possessiveness. Both French and English-language versions of the film were made, with the actors filmed speaking English for the international release, which was unusual at a time when movies were always either dubbed or subtitled. The 114-minute international release, shorter than the French version, also had slightly different editing.
