Gorgeously statuesque and voluptuous redhead knockout Janine Reynaud was born on August 13, 1930 in Paris, France. She began her career as a model for designer Jean Patou. Janine started acting in movies in the mid-1960's. She achieved her greatest enduring cult popularity with her alluring and captivating portrayal of kinky and enigmatic nightclub stripper Lorna Green in Jesús Franco's offbeat and intriguing experimental erotic masterpiece Les yeux verts du diable (1968). Reynaud went on to play sexy sleuth Diana in the delightfully silly spy spoofs Rote Lippen, Sadisterotica (1969) and Küss mich, Monster (1969), which were also directed by Franco. Janine appeared in thirteen films with her actor/writer/director husband Michel Lemoine; they were especially effective together as a predatory swinging libertine couple in the steamy Je suis une nymphomane (1971). Reynaud's other memorable roles include the sexually repressed Adelaide in Frustration (1971), the temperamental Lara in the compelling giallo murder mystery thriller La queue du scorpion (1971), a prostitute in the oddball spaghetti Western Blindman, le justicier aveugle (1971), and libidinous fashion model Francis in the racy Les désaxées (1972). Alas, Janine quit acting in the late 1970's. Reynaud died at age 87 on January 30, 2018 in France. Show less «
