Anne Chevalier (also known as Reri; 1912–1977) was a French Polynesian actress and dancer.

Early life

Anna Irma Ruahrei Chevalier, born in 1912, was the seventh child to a Frenchman Laurence Chevalier and his Polynesian wife. She received education from a Catholic girls' school at Papeete.[1] At age 16, Chevalier was spotted by German director F.W. Murnau who was looking for a Polynesian girl to play the lead role in his silent film A Story of the South Seas (1931), whose story revolved around the fate of a couple when the young girl Reri is to be offered as a sacred maiden to Gods.[2]Tabu has been lauded as "one of the last of the great silent films".[3] Chevalier went to the United States for promoting the film and spent nearly a year there, appearing in the 1931 Broadway show of Ziegfeld Follies and visiting several Hollywood studios.[1][3] From there, she went to Europe for Tabu{{'s}} premiere in Berlin and also performed at dance shows in Paris and Warsaw.[1]

Chevalier's second film role was opposite Eugeniusz Bodo in the Polish romantic drama Black Pearl (1934). She played a Tahitian woman who marries a Polish sailor and becomes a dancing sensation in her quest to gain acceptance by her husband's society. Ohio state censor banned the film, citing their policy against miscegenation.[4] Three year's later, she made a brief appearance in John Ford's The Hurricane, another film set in the South Seas.[5]{{Self-published inline|certain=yes|date=December 2017}}

Personal life

During her stay in Europe, Chevalier was romantically involved with her Black Pearl co-star Eugeniusz Bodo. Polish media even referred to her as his wife but the couple soon separated and Chevalier returned to Tahiti. She died there in 1977.[1]
