Lanzmann's wife Anne Ségalen is also credited on some songs. Dutronc wrote three songs with comic-book writer [[Fred (comics)|Fred]], whose stories he also narrated for commercial release in 1970. Two songs were written in 1971 by Lanzmann, Franck Harvel, and composer Jean-Pierre Bourtayre for a TV adaptation of ''[[Arsène Lupin (TV series)|Arsène Lupin]]''. Co-writing credits on Dutronc's self-titled 1975 album are split between Lanzmann, [[Serge Gainsbourg]], and [[Jean-Loup Dabadie]]. In 1973, {{lang|fr|"Et moi, et moi, et moi"}} was adapted with English lyrics as "Alright Alright Alright" and became a UK No. 3 hit for the group [[Mungo Jerry]]. Also in 1973, Dutronc began a second career as an actor in the film {{lang|fr|Antoine et Sébastien}}, directed by [[Jean-Marie Périer]]. Dutronc's second film, ''[[That Most Important Thing: Love]]'', directed by [[Andrzej Żuławski]], was a major box-office hit in France. In the following years, Dutronc devoted most of his energies toward his acting career, appearing in films directed by [[Jean-Luc Godard]], [[Claude Lelouch]], and [[Maurice Pialat]]. In 1977, he was nominated for the [[César Award]] for Best Supporting Actor for his role in [[Claude Sautet]]'s ''Mado''.<ref>{{cite web|title=César Awards, France (1977)|url=https://www.imdb.com/event/ev0000157/1977|publisher=IMDb}}</ref> [[Steven Spielberg]] reportedly considered Dutronc to be the best French actor of his generation, and had the role of [[List of characters in the Indiana Jones series#René Belloq|René Belloq]] in ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'' written with him in mind.
