Léo Joannon (21 August 1904 – 28 March 1969) was a French writer and film director. Born in Aix-en-Provence,〔(Turner Classic Movies profile )〕 Joannon was originally a law student who became a novelist and journalist before entering the film industry in the 1920s as a cameraman.〔(New York Times/Allmovie profile )〕 Joannon first attracted international attention in early 1939 during the production of ''S.O.S. Mediterranean,'' when his attempts to include shots of a German naval ship docked in the port of Tangier created a diplomatic incident between the pre-World War II French and German governments. The film later won the Grand Prix du Cinema Français.〔(New York Times review, 31 December 1939 (fee required for access) )〕 Joannon is best known to international audiences as the director of the comedy film ''Atoll K'' (1951), which was the final motion picture starring Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy. Among his other films were ''Le Defroque'' (1954) and ''Fort du Fou''/''Outpost in Indochina'' (1962).〔 Joannon died in Neuilly-sur-Seine. == See also == * ''Amour de poche'' (1957) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Léo Joannon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
