Actress with just 2 roles. Only one of them is even on Wikipedia. It seems that her notable role is in a segment of an anthology film called Coffee and Cigarettes and if not deleted should be a redirect to there. Can't find anything else that cries notability for her. Wgolf ( talk) 00:39, 1 April 2019 (UTC) reply

• Redirect probably. I'm not even sure that the Renée French who was in Coffee and Cigarettes is the same one who was in Nowhere Fast - I found this book, Jim Jarmusch: Music, Words and Noise with a chapter called "Voices: John Lurie", where John Lurie says "Renée [French] is in Coffee and Cigarettes from 1992 when she was my girlfriend. ....She'd never acted before and acted in Jim's film, you know, so it's a big thing for Renée." [1] (p 99). I'm not sure I really understand "in Coffee and Cigarettes from 1992" - does it mean "she appeared in Coffee and Cigarettes because in 1992 she was my girlfriend"??? But whether she was in other films like Nowhere Fast or not, that does not appear to be a notable film, so she does not meet WP:NACTOR. I don't find anything about her in a google or Newspapers.com search either - not an easy name to search for, as there are several other Renée Frenches, including a writer, a singer, a teacher, a Miss America .... but none that seem to be this one. However, she did have a significant role in Coffee and Cigarettes, so redirecting to Coffee_and_Cigarettes#Renée would make sense (and perhaps including the source I have found as a reference for that section? although it can't be considered independent).

• Delete Wikipedia is not meant to be an IMDb mirror. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 05:02, 2 April 2019 (UTC) reply
• Redirect to Coffee and Cigarettes#Renee as suggested as her only notable role and she is not independently notable at this time, a redirect is little more than a deletion anyway Atlantic306 ( talk) 21:54, 6 April 2019 (UTC) reply

• Redirect to Coffee and Cigarettes#Renée. There aren't any serious content issues besides the lack of notability, and the section there is sufficient. Pretty much everything is covered there anyway, so not much would be lost, but the redirect may help people find the section. Alpha3031 ( t • c) 06:55, 8 April 2019 (UTC) reply
• Redirect as the movie article does have a section on her/her character so it makes sense to redirect there instead of a delete. Meszzy² ( talk) 08:31, 8 April 2019 (UTC) reply
