He made a notable impact in the 1960s with his roles in Justine (1969) and Mr. Freedom (1968), where he brought a distinct charm to the screen, navigating the absurdities of his characters with finesse. His performance in Let Joy Reign Supreme (1975) further solidified his place in the realm of French cinema.
