The result was no consensus. Closing as no consensus, because WP:NACTOR and WP:DIRECTOR do not conclusively create presumed notability. Per the top of the section for these criteria (Additional criteria), it states, "Failure to meet these criteria is not conclusive proof that a subject should not be included; conversely, meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included."

It was difficult to assess as I don't read Russian and he lived a long time ago, but I couldn't verify that he meets WP:ENT or WP:GNG. Boleyn (talk) 17:46, 21 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Inclined to say Keep He seems to meet WP:NACTOR #1 and WP:DIRECTOR with significant roles in multiple films, some of which he also wrote or directed (L'heureuse Mort most obviously, but also possibly Ce cochon de Morin, Le nègre blanc, Pas sur la bouche, or others - at least three of those films have been restored and rescreened recently[1][2][3]). He did most of his work in France in the 1920s, so online sources are rather limited and I'm unable to show in-depth coverage without access to suitable archives (Google Books doesn't have much French content), but he still seems likely to meet the notability requirements).
