"Charlotte began her career in the French film 'Y a-t-il un pirate sur l'antenne?' in 1983. However, it was her role in the 1984 French film 'Year of the Jellyfish', where she appeared topless, that truly launched her into the limelight. While some critics hail this film as a masterpiece in French cinema, others have more... unique viewing experiences with it.

You might recognize Charlotte from her small role in the 1990 film 'Money' alongside Eric Stoltz, but it's likely you missed that one too. Unfortunately, that's been Charlotte's closest brush with American cinema thus far, although her French films remain noteworthy. Take for instance her performance in the 1995 made-for-TV movie 'Notre homme', where she not only participated in a steamy topless scene but also bared all in an outdoor love scene, shedding both her clothes and inhibitions."
