Clément Perron (July 3, 1929 – October 12, 1999) was a Canadian film director and screenwriter.[1][2]

Early life and education

Perron was born in Quebec City, Quebec. After graduating from the University of Laval with a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy Perron went to France to continue his studies with the goal of becoming a teacher. He studied linguistics at the Academie de Portier.[3]

Career

After watching screenings at the Cinémathèque française in Paris, Perron became interested in cinema and on his return to Canada in 1957, he joined the NFB as a writer.[4]

In 1960, he began directing documentary shorts and in 1962, found critical success with his film Day After Day (Jour après jour), which won two Canadian Film Awards.[5] Perron continued to work primarily on documentaries until the NFB decided to make an attempt at a more commercial cinema in the late sixties and early seventies.[6] He directed three fiction feature-length films of moderate success during this time period but his biggest accomplishment was writing the screenplay for Mon oncle Antoine (1971) which was based on his own childhood experiences.[7]

Perron retired from the NFB in 1986 to work in the private sector primarily as a writer.[citation needed] Perron died in 1999 in Pointe-Claire, Quebec.
