Alice Arno, (born June 29, 1946) is a French actress, nudist and model, best known for her roles in European sexploitation and horror film genre.
Movie career[edit]
Arno (who was raised in a family of nudists) worked as a nude model (posing for Pop, Men, Topfilm...) when she began her film career in 1969 at the age of 22.[1] In 1972, she played the lead role in Justine de Sade, Claude Pierson's film adaptation of the Marquis de Sade's 1791 novel Justine. She became, along with Lina Romay and Monica Swinn, one of the most popular figures of European exploitation film, working for Eurociné and for Robert de Nesle's Comptoir Français de Productions Cinématographiques. She appeared in twelve erotic horror movies directed by Jesús Franco and is best remembered for playing the titular role in Franco's The Perverse Countess (1974), an erotic remake of the classic 1932 film The Most Dangerous Game.
She appeared in ten films with her sister Chantal Broquet, who also worked as a model and actress in low-budget European film productions. Chantal only appeared in three Franco films, The Obscene Mirror and his two Maciste films. They both quit the film industry after the advent of hardcore pornography. Alice Arno stopped making films in 1977, at age 31. (Chantal retired from films in 1975.)
