Henri le Bailly de La Falaise, Marquis de La Coudraye was a French nobleman, translator, film director, film producer, sometimes actor and war hero who was best known for his high-profile marriages to two leading Hollywood actresses.Notably handsome and universally known as "Hank," the marquis was admiringly described by the actress Lillian Gish as "a real war hero. In his bathing-suit he presents a graphic picture of what modern warfare does to a man he is so cut-and-shot and covered with scars."La Falaise directed at least five motion pictures, among them two exotic productions about primitive life and customs: Kliou the Killer and Legong: Dance of the Virgins.He is probably better known, however, for being the third of film star Gloria Swanson's six husbands. They married on January 28, 1925, after meeting on the set of the Swanson film Madame Sans- Gêne, on which La Falaise was working as a translator. They were officially divorced in November 1931, at which time Swanson was several months pregnant by Michael Farmer, an Irish sportsman who would become her fourth husband.
