Vladimir Roudenko was born on May 1, 1909 in Nice, Alpes-Maritimes, France. He was an actor, known for Napoleon (1927). He died on August 23, 1976 in Paris, France.
Thanks to the director's energetic and revolutionary direction, Roudenko offered what many critics say represents the most memorable performance given by a child actor in silent cinema in a dramatic role.
As an adult, Roudenko worked as a technician for Thompson and would not talk about his experience as an actor, which seemed forgotten by everyone.
He was born in Nice in 1909 to a family of Russian immigrants. Abandoned by his father, he had a difficult childhood marked by economic deprivation.
After "Napoleon" he appeared in two more silent films, "André Cornélis" and "Mateo Falcone".
