==Career==
===1970–1979: Early roles and breakthrough ===
Huppert made her television debut in 1971 with ''[[Le Prussien]]'', and her feature film debut in [[Nina Companeez]]'s romantic comedy ''[[Faustine et le Bel Été]]'' (1972). The film was shown Out of Competition at the [[1972 Cannes Film Festival]]. Also that year she played Annie Smith	in [[Alain Levent]]'s adventure film ''[[The Bar at the Crossing]]'' and Marite in [[Claude Sautet]]'s romance drama ''[[César and Rosalie]]'' with the former premiering at the [[Berlin International Film Festival]]. She made her theatre debut playing Lucile in ''[[Les Précieuses ridicules]]'' at the [[Comédie-Française]] in Paris from 1971 to 1972. Later that year she acted in ''[[A Hunger Artist]]'' at National Theatre Daniel Sorano in Paris followed by a run at the [[Shiraz Arts Festival]].

In 1974 she acted in [[Alain Robbe-Grillet]]'s art film ''[[Successive Slidings of Pleasure]]'' and [[Rachel Weinberg]]'s fantasy film ''[[L'Ampélopède]]''. She also gained notoriety for her later appearance as Suzanne in [[Bertrand Blier]]'s controversial [[sex comedy]] ''[[Going Places (1974 film)|Les Valseuses]]'' (1974). Huppert acted alongside [[Gérard Depardieu]] and [[Jeanne Moreau]]. [[Vincent Canby]] of ''[[The New York Times]]'' panned the film writing, "It's not very invigorating to see so much talent squandered on such foolish mixed-up romanticism."<ref>{{cite news|url= https://www.nytimes.com/1974/05/14/archives/screen-going-placesblier-directs-tale-of-two-errant-youths-the-cast.html|title= Screen: 'Going Places':Blier Directs Tale of Two Errant Youths The Cast|work= The New York Times|date= 14 May 1974|access-date= September 3, 2023|last1= Canby|first1= Vincent}}</ref> The role made her increasingly recognized by the public.

The following year she acted in [[Yves Boisset]]'s drama ''[[The Common Man (film)|The Common Man]]'' (1975) which won the [[Silver Bear Grand Jury Prize]] at the [[Berlin International Film Festival]]. That same year starred in the American action thriller ''[[Rosebud (1975 film)|Rosebud]]'' (1975) directed by [[Otto Preminger]]. She acted opposite [[Peter O'Toole]] and [[Richard Attenborough]]. She also starred in the title role in the drama film ''[[Aloïse (film)|Aloïse]]'' which premiered at the [[Cannes Film Festival]]. In 1976 she acted in [[Bertrand Tavernier]]'s ''[[The Judge and the Assassin]]'' and [[Christine Lipinska]]'s ''[[I Am Pierre Riviere]]''.

Her international breakthrough came with her performance in [[Claude Goretta]]'s ''[[The Lacemaker|La Dentelliere]]'' (1977),<ref name="Yahoo! Movies">{{cite web|url=https://movies.yahoo.com/movie/contributor/1800019676/bio|title=Isabelle Huppert|work=Yahoo! Movies|access-date=15 August 2009}}</ref> for which she won a [[BAFTA Award]] for Most Promising Newcomer to Leading Film Roles. Critic [[Roger Ebert]] praised her performance writing, "The movie’s performances are wonderfully subtle. Huppert, as Pomme, is good at the very difficult task of projecting the inner feelings of a character whose whole personality is based on the concealment of feeling".<ref>{{cite web|url= https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/the-lacemaker-1978|title= The Lacemaker review|website= Rogerebert.com|access-date= September 3, 2023}}</ref> The following year she won acclaim playing [[Violette Nozière (murderer)|the title role]] [[Claude Chabrol]]'s crime drama ''[[Violette Nozière]]'' (1978) winning the [[Cannes Film Festival Award for Best Actress]]. It was the first of seven collaborations she would have with director Chabrol. Ebert wrote, "Huppert's performance, which is so assured, so complex it's hard to believe she worked this transformation in character after ''The Lacemaker''.<ref>{{cite web|url= https://www.rogerebert.com/festivals/violette-the-dark-side-of-huppert-and-chabrol|title= Violette: The dark side of Huppert and Chabrol|website= September 3, 2023|date= 14 December 2012}}</ref>

=== 1980–1999: Established actress ===
After a five-year absence from American films, Huppert starred in [[Michael Cimino]]'s ''[[Heaven's Gate (film)|Heaven's Gate]]'' (1980), which opened to poor reviews and was a box office failure; decades later, the film has been reassessed, with some critics considering it an overlooked masterpiece.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bbc.com/culture/story/20151120-heavens-gate-from-hollywood-disaster-to-masterpiece|title=Heaven's Gate: From Hollywood disaster to masterpiece|last=Barber|first=Nicholas|date=4 December 2015 |access-date=2 December 2016}}</ref> Also that year she starred in [[Maurice Pialat]]'s ''[[Loulou (film)|Loulou]]'' (1980) where she reunited with Gérard Depardieu. [[Janet Maslin]] of ''[[The New York Times]]'' praised her performance writing, "Miss Huppert does a fine job of seeming exotic, vague, dazzling and also, somehow, unremarkable - all of this at the same time. The performances are much sharper than the film is as a whole."<ref>{{cite news|url= https://www.nytimes.com/1980/10/08/arts/isabelle-huppert-and-depardieu-in-loulou.html|title= Isabelle Huppert and Depardieu' in 'Loulou'|work= The New York Times|date= 8 October 1980|access-date= September 3, 2023|last1= Maslin|first1= Janet}}</ref> Also in 1980 she acted in [[Jean-Luc Godard]]'s ''[[Every Man for Himself (1980 film)|Sauve qui peut (la vie)]]'' (1980).

Throughout the 1980s, Huppert continued to explore enigmatic and emotionally distant characters, most notably in ''[[Coup de Torchon]]'' (1983) directed by [[Bertrand Tavernier]], adapted from [[Jim Thompson (writer)|Jim Thompson]]'s [[pulp novel]] ''[[Pop. 1280]]''. Huppert earned a [[César Award for Best Actress]] nomination for her performance. She acted in [[Curtis Hanson]]'s [[neo-noir]] thriller ''[[The Bedroom Window (1987 film)|The Bedroom Window]]'' (1987) acting opposite [[Steve Guttenberg]] and [[Elizabeth McGovern]].<ref>{{cite web|url= https://www.tcm.com/tcmdb/title/68333/the-bedroom-window/#overview|title= The Bedroom Window (1987)|website= [[Turner Classic Movies]]|access-date= September 3, 2023}}</ref> She won acclaim for her role in [[Claude Chabrol]]'s ''[[Story of Women|Une Affaire de Femmes]]'' (1988).

[[File:Isabelle Huppert CINEMANIA 1998.jpg|right|upright|thumb|At the 1998 [[Cinemania (film festival)|Cinemania Film Festival]]]]
In 1994, Huppert collaborated with American director [[Hal Hartley]] on ''[[Amateur (1994 film)|Amateur]]'', one of her few English-language performances since ''Heaven's Gate''. She won acclaim for her role in ''[[La Séparation]]'' (1994) with David Parkinson of ''[[British Film Institute]]'' writing, "Her distinctive talent for suppressing suffering is readily evident in Christian Vincent’s excruciating study of her slowly disintegrating relationship with Daniel Auteuil, as Huppert imparts chilling intimacy to a withdrawn hand, an unanswering gaze, a treacherous silence and a careless word in conveying the pain of falling out of love."<ref>{{cite web|url= https://www.bfi.org.uk/lists/isabelle-huppert-10-essential-films|title= Isabelle Huppert's 10 Essential Films|website= BFI|date= 16 March 2017|access-date= September 3, 2023}}</ref> She portrayed a manic and homicidal post-office worker in [[Claude Chabrol]]'s ''[[La Cérémonie]]'' (1995) for which she won the [[César Award for Best Actress]] and the [[Volpi Cup for Best Actress]]. Huppert continued her cinematic relationship with Chabrol in ''[[The Swindle (1997 film)|Rien ne va plus]]'' (1997) and ''[[Merci pour le Chocolat]]'' (2000).

===2000–2009: ''The Piano Teacher'' and acclaim ===
[[File:Isabelle Huppert 2.jpg|left|upright|thumb|Huppert on stage in 2006]]
Huppert's first collaboration with Austrian director [[Michael Haneke]] was in ''[[The Piano Teacher (film)|The Piano Teacher]]'' (2001), based on the titular novel (''Die Klavierspielerin'') by [[Elfriede Jelinek]], who was named a [[Nobel Prize in Literature|Nobel Laureate in Literature]] in 2004. In the film, she played a piano teacher who becomes involved with a young and charming pianist. Regarded as one of her most impressive turns, the performance won her the 2001 [[Best Actress Award (Cannes Film Festival)|Best Actress Award]] at Cannes. [[David Denby]] of ''[[The New Yorker]]'' praised her work in the film, writing: "Much of her best acting is no more than a flicker of consciousness, barely visible around the edges of the mask. Yet she gives a classic account of repression and sexual hypocrisy, unleashing the kind of rage that the great [[Bette Davis]] might have expressed".<ref>{{cite magazine|url= https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2002/04/01/play-it-again-2|title= Play It Again|magazine= The New Yorker|date= 24 March 2002|access-date= September 3, 2023|last1= Denby|first1= David}}</ref>

In 2002 she acted in the dark comedy musical film ''[[8 Women]]'', directed by [[François Ozon]]. Jonathan Cruiel of ''[[The San Francisco Chronicle]]'' wrote of her: "Huppert has a reputation for her intense portrayals, and in ''8 Women'', she steals every scene she's in as the uptight, melodramatic, bespectacled aunt."<ref>{{cite web|url= https://www.sfgate.com/movies/article/8-vibrant-actresses-bring-funny-whodunit-alive-2766631.php|title= '8' vibrant actresses bring funny whodunit alive|website= the San Francisco Chronicle|access-date= September 3, 2023|last1= Curiel|first1= Jonathan}}</ref> In 2004, she starred in [[Christophe Honoré]]'s ''[[Ma Mère]]'', based on a novel by [[Georges Bataille]]. She portrayed Hélène, a middle-aged mother in an incestuous relationship with her teenage son, played by [[Louis Garrel]]. She also starred opposite [[Dustin Hoffman]] and [[Jason Schwartzman]] in [[David O. Russell]]'s 2004 film ''[[I Heart Huckabees]]''. 

Huppert also worked in Italy (with directors [[Paolo and Vittorio Taviani]], [[Mauro Bolognini]], [[Marco Ferreri]] and [[Marco Bellocchio]]), in Russia (with Igor Minaiev), in Central Europe (with [[Werner Schroeter]], [[Andrzej Wajda]], [[Ursula Meier]], Michael Haneke, [[Márta Mészáros]] and [[Aleksandar Petrović (film director)|Aleksandar Petrović]]) and in Asia (with [[Hong Sang-soo]], [[Brillante Mendoza]] and [[Rithy Panh]]).

Huppert is also an acclaimed stage actress, receiving seven [[Molière Award for Best Actress|Molière Award]] nominations, including for the lead in a 2001 Paris production of ''[[Medea (play)|Medea]]'' directed by Jacques Lassalle;<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://fresques.ina.fr/en-scenes/fiche-media/Scenes00306/medee-d-euripide-mis-en-scene-par-jacques-lassalle-a-avignon.html|title=Médée d'Euripide, mis en scène par Jacques Lassalle à Avignon|date=10 July 2000|publisher=En Scènes|language=fr|access-date=29 January 2017}}</ref> and in 2005 in the title role of [[Henrik Ibsen|Ibsen]]'s ''[[Hedda Gabler]]'' at the [[Odéon-Théâtre de l'Europe]] in Paris.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.lesarchivesduspectacle.net/?IDX_Spectacle=5830|title=Hedda Gabler|date=13 January 2005 |publisher=Les Archives du Spectacle|language=fr|access-date=19 February 2017}}</ref> Later that year, she toured the United States in a [[Royal Court Theatre]] production of [[Sarah Kane]]'s theatrical piece ''[[4.48 Psychosis]]''.

''' Europe Theatre Prize '''

On 17 December 2017 she was awarded the XVI [[Europe Theatre Prize]], in [[Rome]].<ref name="Premio Europa per il Teatro" /> The Prize organization stated:<blockquote>From her beginnings as a stage actress, Isabelle Huppert has moved between cinema and theatre with an extraordinary productivity, and with results which have made her perhaps the most garlanded performer in the two spheres. Her name, directly linked with French and European auteur cinema, is a guarantee of quality for the productions in which she takes part: she is an artist who chooses her scripts, her roles and the directors with whom she works with the greatest care, always able to make her mark on the films in which she appears. Isabelle Huppert, a world icon in contemporary cinema, has never abandoned the theatre, an art which she continues to practise with passion, deep interest and admirable playing skills. The reasons for her passionate love of theatre, which she herself gave in her message for this year's [[World Theatre Day]], are completely in accord with the motivation for the 16th Europe Theatre Prize, which we award to her this year with real pleasure: «Theatre for me represents the other; it is dialogue, and it is the absence of hatred. "Friendship between peoples" – now, I do not know too much about what this means, but I believe in community, in friendship between spectators and actors, in the lasting union between all the people theatre brings together – translators, educators, costume designers, stage artists, academics, practitioners and audiences. Theatre protects us; it shelters us…I believe that theatre loves us…as much as we love it… I remember an old-fashioned stage director I worked for, who, before the nightly raising of the curtain would yell, with full-throated firmness "Make way for theatre!"»<ref>{{Cite web |title=Catalogue XVI edition – Europe Theatre Prize |date=5 April 2018 |url=https://issuu.com/francescosapuppo/docs/catalogoxvi_roma |page=33 |format=PDF}}</ref></blockquote>

Huppert's work in ''[[Elle (film)|Elle]]'' and ''[[Things to Come (2016 film)|Things to Come]]'' topped ''The Playlist'''s ranking of "The 25 Best Performances Of 2016", stating: "She runs the emotional gamut from one film to the next, carnal, savage, shattered, listless, invulnerable but exposed, a woman on the verge of collapse who refuses to succumb to her instabilities. Huppert's career spans four decades and change, plus a heap of awards and accolades, but with ''Elle'' and ''Things To Come'', she could well be having her best year yet."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://theplaylist.net/25-best-performances-2016-20161222/5/#cb-content|title=The 25 Best Performances Of 2016|work=The Playlist|date=22 December 2016|access-date=23 December 2016}}</ref>
