Madeleine RENAUD (1900-1994). 2 L.A.S., [1931-1933], to Émile Fabre, administrator of the Comédie-Française; 3pages and a quarter in-8 on Comédie-Française letterhead (photograph attached). Friday [April 1931]. She is unable to attend the rehearsals of Le Monde [in which Édouard Pailleron is bored, revived for the fiftieth anniversary of its creation]: "My film [Jean de la Lune] is nearing its end, and I'm imprisoned at Paramount". She will be rehearsing her two scenes with Martinelli in her dressing room on Sunday morning. She would like to have a few days in the following week to take her son [Jean-Pierre Granval] to the country, "which would give me a rest from this Horrible work called: Cinema"... - Saturday [January 1933?] She has the flu. "I'm losing everything at the moment: film stopped [Boubouroche], performance at the Cercle Interallié missed", and now it's Le Secret [by Bernstein] that's preventing her from earning a fee. She had long promised to play in Liège on February 8, and she asked not to show Le Secret that day...
