The actress Arlette Thomas died on Wednesday May 13 at
the age of 87. A talented voice dubber, she was the mother of Pierre Jolivet
and Marc and Françoise Dasque
Her name is not well known to everyone, but her voice
should be, she is immensely known in France.
In the early 1950s Arlette Thomas began an artistic
career, first in the theater and, in parallel, on the radio. A few years later,
she discovered what would become her passion: dubbing. Therefore, her voice
will lull the most tender childhood for several generations, since double-Titi,
the little canary Tweety and Sylvester, but Caliméro or Uranus, in the cartoon
Goldorak. Next she was seen on the big screen, she become the French voice of
Shirley MacLaine in most of her films in the late 1970s and telephoto side,
that of Renée Taylor, day mum Fran in The Nanny.
Subsequently, she turned to art direction and officiated
on dubbing trays and the Restless for twenty years. But she suffered a stroke
in 2010 and took early retirement.
