Timeline
She has an entry in Jean Tulard's "Dictionnnaire du Cinéma/Les Acteurs", published in Paris in 2007 by Bouquins/Robert Laffont (pg. 12).
Less than a week after her 35th birthday, on Oct.
Ill with tuberculosis, she retired in 1930.
The following year she had an uncredited bit role in His Glorious Night (1929).
She appeared in a bit part in Show People (1928) later that year.
Re-discovered by First National Pictures after being released by MGM, she appeared in The Spieler (1928), in which she was a struggling carnival manager trying to overcome the dishonesty that went on in her organization.
In 1927 Renee starred as Nang Ping in Mr.
Wu (1927), along with her sister Mira Adoree. The film was a hit, with co-stars Ralph Forbes and Lon Chaney, but it was Renee's character that carried the film. After several more pictures, her career was slowing down.
All that changed in 1925 when she starred as Melisande with John Gilbert in The Big Parade (1925). The picture made stars out of Renee, Gilbert and Karl Dane.
Based on the film's success, Renee was put in another production, Excuse Me (1925). It lacked the drama the previous picture but was well-received.
In a plot written by Elinor Glyn, Renee starred as Suzette in Man and Maid (1925). This was Renee's most provocative role yet and she was fast becoming one of the sexiest actresses on the screen.
Finally MGM saw fit to put her in more films in 1922.
Movies such as West of Chicago (1922), Day-Dreams (1928), Mixed Faces (1922) and Monte Cristo (1929) saw her with meatier roles than she had had previously. Renee was, finally, hitting her stride. Better roles to be sure, but still she was not of first-class caliber yet.
That was to be it until 1921,, when she appeared in Made in Heaven (1921). Renee wondered if she had made the right move by going into motion pictures because of two minor roles in as many films.
By 1920 she had attracted the attention of American producers and came to New York.
Her first film before US audiences was The Strongest (1920) that same year.
Renee Adoree was born Jeanne de la Fontein in Lille in Nord-Pas-de-Calais, France, on September 30, 1898. She had what one could call a normal childhood. Her background is, perhaps, one of the most difficult to find information on any actress in existence. What we do know that her interest in acting surfaced during her teen years with minor stage productions in France.
