Paul Bernard (1898-1958) was an accomplished French stage actor, who also appeared in thirty-five films between 1922 and 1958. With his commanding, often menacing screen presence, he often played men of sinister charm, usually negative or twisted characters. His films included the silent serial film Les mystères de Paris/The Mysteries of Paris (Charles Burguet, 1922), Lumière d'été/Summer Light (Jean Grémillon, 1943), and the drama Un ami viendra ce soir/A Friend Will Come Tonight (Raymond Bernard, 1946).
Paul Renaud Bernard was born in 1898 in Villeneuve-sur-Lot, France. He made his film debut as the young prince Rodolphe in the silent serial Les mystères de Paris/The Mysteries of Paris (Charles Burguet, 1922) starring Huguette Duflos and Georges Lannesas the older Rodolphe. The serial, which ran in twelve installments, was based on the novel 'The Mysteries of Paris' by Eugène Sue. In the following decade, he became an accomplished stage actor, who always preferred theatre to film. According to IMDb, his star-making vehicle in the cinema was the psychological drama Pension Mimosas (Jacques Feyder, 1935) starring Françoise Rosay. In the following years, he appeared in such films as the comedy Bach détective/Bach the Detective (René Pujol, 1936) starring Bach. During the occupation of France by the Nazis, he appeared with Madeleine Renaud, Pierre Brasseur, and Madeleine Robinson in Lumière d'été/Summer Light (Jean Grémillon, 1943), scripted by Jacques Prévert and Pierre Laroche. The film was banned from theatres for the duration of the occupation for its dark portrayal of the hedonistic excesses of the ruling class. The next year, he played the villain in the popular Swashbuckler Le bossu/The Hunchback (Jean Delannoy, 1944) with Pierre Blanchar.
After the war, Paul Benard played the lead role in Les Dames du Bois de Boulogne/The Ladies of the Bois de Boulogne (Robert Bresson, 1945). This is a modern adaptation of a section of Denis Diderot's 'Jacques le fataliste' (1796) that tells the story of a man who is tricked into marrying a prostitute. Les Dames du Bois de Boulogne was Bresson's second feature. Bernard had a huge box office success in France with the drama La fille aux yeux gris/Girl with Green Eyes (Jean Faurez, 1945) in which he starred with Fernand Ledoux and Claude Génia. Another success was the historical drama Roger la Honte (André Cayatte, 1946) starring Lucien Coëdel, María Casares, and Bernard. It was followed by a sequel La revanche de Roger la Honte/The Revenge of Roger (André Cayatte, 1946). In the drama Un ami viendra ce soir/A Friend Will Come Tonight (Raymond Bernard, 1946), he co-starred with Michel Simon and Madeleine Sologne. He also played a small but crucial part in Panique/Panic (Julien Duvivier, 1947), starring Michel Simon and Viviane Romance., and based on the novel 'Les Fiançailles de M. Hire' by Georges Simenon. He co-starred again in the drama Les Maudits/The Damned (René Clément, 1947) which was entered into the 1947 Cannes Film Festival. According to Wikipedia, the film is notable for its depiction of the interior of a wartime submarine and for its tracking shots through the length of the U-boat.
In 1950, Paul Bernard played the title role in the French thriller L'homme qui revient de loin/The Man Who Returns from Afar (Jean Castanier, 1950) also starring Annabella and María Casares. He also starred in the crime film Mystère à Shanghai (Roger Blanc, 1950) based on the novel 'La Nuit du 12 au 13' by Stanislas-André Steeman. He played a man who will be killed by, a Chinese criminal organisation if he doesn't pay them $50,000. He played a supporting part in the historical comedy Caroline Chérie/Darling Caroline (Richard Pottier, 1951) starring Martine Carol, It was followed by the sequel Un caprice de Caroline chérie (1953) with Carol but without Bernard. Paul Bernard passed away in 1958 at the Clinique de la rue Boissière in Paris. He was 59.

Leonardo - Like the intro states he is the leader. His orders are usually followed. He is the wisest, most experienced and balanced of the team. Leo often portrayed as the most serious and disciplined out of all the turtles. When the cartoon series starts out, he is shown with having a very level head, likewise to his leadership qualities in the comics.
He has a lot of responsibility on his hands, which can sometimes overwhelm him. He is very protective of his siblings and is willing to do anything for them. Leo acts as a big brother or a parental figure to his brothers and as a teacher's pet to Master Splinter. He was chosen to be the leader because of his willingness not by his skill.
Leonardo demonstrates many important qualities needed in a leader. Like his brothers, he is stealthy, can hide in the shadows, sneak around without being detected and uses hand to hand combat like ninjas do. Leo does his best to lead the team, but he sometimes second-guesses himself and his constant sibling rivalry with Raphael can cause problems for the team and puts a strain on his relationship with Raph.
Leonardo always takes Splinter's advice seriously, even though at times, his stubbornness starts to annoy his sensei. Leo gets confused whenever Splinter uses difficult phrases and quotes while giving away his wisdom, but he always takes it under consideration.
In the Leonardo One Shot 1986, Leonardo goes out for a run on the rooftops of New York City and is ambushed by the Foot Clan. He puts up an admirable fight against an army of Foot Ninja, but is eventually overwhelmed by them. Beaten to near unconsciousness, he is thrown through April O'Neil's apartment window. The remaining Turtles and Splinter are forced to continue the fight, but even with the aid of Casey Jones, the odds are against them. In the end, the building catches fire and the police arrive, but they secretly escape to Northampton. During this time, Leonardo recovers from his physical wounds. However, he has lost a great deal of confidence. While out hunting, he sees April fall through ice into a lake, and he rescues her. Leonardo has regains most of his confidence at this point.
In the Return to New York storyline (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (vol. 1) #19-21), Raphael demands that the Turtles return to New York to confront the Foot Clan and the Shredder. He accuses Leonardo of cowardice, and the arguing brothers soon come to a serious scrap. Leonardo is beaten by Raphael, who throws him through the wall of the barn and leaves the farm
alone.
The Turtles return to New York and reunite with their wayward brother in the old sewer lair. The three go along with Raphael's plan to storm the Foot Head Quarters, where once again Raphael goes off on his own to fight the Shredder. However, he is ambushed and beaten by the Shredder's Elite guard, but is rescued by Leonardo. This prompts Raphael to finally cede to Leonardo's leadership, leaving him to fight the Shredder. Leonardo engages in a bloody battle with Shredder that spills out onto the rooftop of the building. Leonardo ends the battle by decapitating the Shredder just as the building implodes. The Turtles later burn the Shredder's corpse in a funeral pyre in a nearby Manhattan harbor.
Leo is an extremely skilled martial artist and swordsman. His weapons of choice are a pair of katana blades which he uses in a traditional niten-ryu style. He has a good line of defense, and is the best at planning strategies. He is pretty strong when it comes to defense and counter attacks and he is mainly a well balanced ninja in terms of strength, speed, agility, and is intelligent.
He is named after Leonardo da Vinci and wears a blue bandana.
In the video games, Leonardo is the first turtle of choice. He is popular especially for beginner players of the TMNT games. Leonardo is portrayed as well-balanced, having, in all areas, strong but not extreme abilities and no glaring weaknesses ; however, Leonardo can usually inflict more damage.
In the New 2012 TMNT TV series, Leo loves a particular TV show called "Space Heroes" and tends to try to be like the hero on there, much to the annoyance of his brothers.
Leonardo's voice actor was Cam Clarke in the original 1987 cartoon. In the crossover movie Turtles Forever, this version of Leonardo is voiced by Dan Green and in the new 2012 series, Leo is voiced by Jason Biggs.

Geoff was one of the foremost and well respected actors of his generation, he had studied at some of the best theatre schools in the garden and had in fact appeared throughout the known world in stage and screen. He was known for his ability to get into the character and immerse himself totally in the persona of the insects he portrayed, I guess you would call him a method actor. Geoff had even been known to carry the character through into his home life, much to the dismay of his friends and neighbours when he played a serial killer or mass murderer. They forgave him though, Geoff was a magnet to lady flies and even though the life expectancy for one of Geoff's friends was alarmingly short, it was a glorious way to go. Geoff's most famous film was called "The Man" in which he played a mad scientist who was experimenting with teleportation and his DNA got mixed up with that of a human. Geoff's character started to lose his exoskeleton, wash occasionally and eat solid food that hadn't been vomited on! He also became duplicitous, conniving and generally a bad fly. The box office receipts were phenomenal as flies queued to see the horror of Geoff's character slowly turning into a human, flies were horrified by the mere thought that this could actually happen. It had been a few days since Geoff's heyday and his "tour de force" movie but it still earned him royalties and accolades for his performance. Geoff would retire happy secure in the knowledge that he had been a part of the biggest movie of his generation and even though "The man 2 - return of the soft skin" was now in production with a new and younger actor, he knew that the classic first film would always be the best.

Beloved, down-to-earth character actor Raimu (1883-1946) was one of the major stars of the French cinema in the 1930s. He started his career as a comedian at the Folies Bergère and other major Paris venues, and in 1929 he had his breakthrough as a serious actor with his part as César in the Marseille trilogy Marius-Fanny-César by Marcel Pagnol.
Raimu was born as Jules Auguste Cesar Muraire in the harbour town of Toulon, France in 1883. His father was an upholsterer. At the age of 16, he made his stage debut by imitating his comic idols, Félix Mayol and Polin. He went on to perform in dance halls, cafe concerts, and bars in the Provence. His stage name was Rallum, but later he changed it into Raimu. He was sometimes credited as Jules Raimu. He came to the attention of the singer and music hall director Félix Mayol who was also from Toulon. In 1908 Mayol gave him a chance to work as a secondary act in the Paris theaters. Raimu made his film debut in Le fumiste/The Humbug (1912, Gérard Bourgeois). The following years he appeared in more short silent films but nothing much came of them. After this disappointment, Raimu would not appear on screen for more than a decade. Primarily a comedian, in 1916 writer/director Sacha Guitry gave him significant parts in productions at the Folies Bergère and other major venues. He starred in the premiere of Messager's operetta Coups de roulis in 1928. In 1929, he gained wide acclaim for his serious role as César Olivier in Marcel Pagnol’s play Marius. César is the father of the young sailor Marius. Marius works in his father’s waterfront bar in Marseille, but longs to travel to exotic places with the ship crews that part from the docks. Only his love for the vendor Fanny keeps him on shore. César, with his generous, comic spirit, tries to guide his son. The play was an astonishing success and was soon followed by the plays Fanny and César.
Although he was reluctant about the cinema, Raimu agreed to act in the early sound film Le Blanc et le Noir/Black and White (Marc Allégret, Robert Florey, 1930) written by Sacha Guitry. It was a success. A year later he reprised his role as the grubby, iron-willed César in the film adaptation of Marius (Alexander Korda, 1931), featuring Pierre Fresnay as Marius and co-produced by author Marcel Pagnol. Gary Brumburgh writes at IMDb: “Raimu transferred the role of Cesar brilliantly to film in 1931 and the rest is history. So Marius was soon followed by the sequels Fanny (Marc Allégret, 1932) featuring Orane Demazis, and César (Marcel Pagnol, 1936). According to Brumburgh the three films have been ‘arguably celebrated as the greatest series ever put together’. By his late forties, Raimu had become one of France’s most noted actors, both on stage and in the cinema. His best films include Un carnet de bal/Dance Program (Julien Duvivier, 1937) with Marie Bell, the comedy Gribouille/Heart of Paris (Marc Allégret, 1937) with Michèle Morgan in her first major film role, La Femme du boulanger/The Baker's Wife (Marcel Pagnol, 1938), and L’Arlesienne (Marc Allégret, 1942) with a young Louis Jourdan. In these films, he swayed effectively from humor to great pathos. In 1943, Raimu took a three-year sabbatical from filmmaking when he was invited to join La Comédie Francaise, where he excelled in the plays of Molière. Shortly after making the Fyodor Dostoyevsky adaptation L'homme au chapeau rond/The Eternal Road (Pierre Billon, 1946), Raimu died of a heart attack in Neuilly-sur-Seine. He was interred in the cemetery of his birthplace Toulon-sur-Mer where there is also the Cinéma Raimu Toulon named in his honor. In 1961, the French government honored him with a postage stamp. Raimy was married to Esther Metayer and they had a daughter, Paulette. His grand-daughter Isabelle Nohain created a small museum, le Musée-Espace Raimu in Cogolin, France.
