Catherine Mouchet (born 21 August 1959, Paris) is a French actress. She studied at the Conservatoire de Paris, following the courses of Jacques Lassalle and Claude Régy. She is best known for her portrayal of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux in the film Thérèse directed by Alain Cavalier. Her performance won the César Award for Most Promising Actress for 1987.

Career

Having been acclaimed for her appearance in Thérèse, Mouchet found that the rôle imprisoned her in the image of the Saint and , in spite of appearing in Claude Goretta's Si le soleil ne revenait pas in 1987, she devoted herself to theatre for a time. She appeared in works by Cervantes, Luigi Pirandello , and Alfred de Musset, and directed La Petite dame with Claude Guyonnet, in 1992. She returned to the screen in Jean-Pierre Mocky's Bonsoir 1993, and in Louis and Xavier Bachelot's short film La Plante. On television she appesared in the saga Jalna, directed by Philippe Monnier from the books of Mazo de la Roche, and in Le blanc à lunettes, directed by Édouard Nierman , from a Georges Simenon novel. She then studied for a degree in philosophy.

She returned again and played supporting roles in two Olivier Assayas films, Fin août, début septembre and Les Destinées sentimentales - other notable appearances coming in Pierre Jolivet's Ma petite entreprise and Philippe Harel's adaptation of Michel Houellebecq's controversial breakthrough novel Extension du domaine de la lutte (1999), in which she played a psychoanalyst.
