Biographie

Darryl Francis Zanuck est un producteur de cinéma, réalisateur et scénariste américain. Né le 5 septembre 1902 à Wahoo dans le Nebraska, il est mort le 22 décembre 1979 à Palm Springs en Californie, d'une pneumonie.

Darryl F. Zanuck est l'un des monuments du Septième Art. Avec plus de 200 films produits durant cinquante ans, du cinéma muet des années 1920 jusqu'au début des années 1970. On lui doit plusieurs chefs-d'œuvre et la révélation d'une multitude de talentueux réalisateurs et stars.

Il commence comme gagman pour Charles Chaplin dans les années 1910, avant de gravir petit à petit tous les échelons de la hiérarchie hollywoodienne. Stewart Granger raconte avoir boxé Darryl Zanuck parce que celui-ci veut coucher avec son épouse Jean Simmons. Zanuck lui dit qu'il va briser sa carrière, et il le fait: après 1957, la carrière américaine de Stewart Granger est finie.

Darryl Zanuck est marié pendant plus de trente ans à Virginia Fox, l'une des actrices fétiches de Buster Keaton. Il vit par la suite plusieurs idylles, d'abord avec Bella Darvi, puis notamment avec Juliette Gréco, suivie par l'actrice Irina Demick et aussi avec la jeune actrice française Geneviève Gilles à la fin des années 19605.

Après sa rupture avec Juliette Gréco et sa démission de la Fox (dont il reste actionnaire majoritaire), parlant couramment le français, il vient vivre en France au début des années 1960 et s'installe à Paris au no 44 de la rue du Bac.

Darryl Zanuck est inhumé au Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery de Westwood (Los Angeles).

Son fils, Richard D. Zanuck (1934-2012), est également producteur de cinéma.
