Early life
Dreyfus was born and raised in Paris, and was the only child of actress Pascale Audret and producer Francis Dreyfus. Her father was of Romanian-Jewish and Alsatian-Jewish descent, and her mother was of French descent. She spent her summers in the United Kingdom. As an infant, she and her mother used to watch Woody Allen's early films together. After studying interior design and becoming interested in Japanese architecture, she began learning Japanese at the Institute for Oriental Languages and Civilization at the University of Paris in 1985. She travelled to Japan to study at the Osaka University of Foreign Studies for a six-month intensive Japanese course, hoping to land a career in interior design. She returned to Tokyo to work part-time in a design studio while still learning private Japanese lessons after finishing the course. She began working as a French language tutor on the NHK morning-television-educational program in 1988. Dreyfus, the program's director, was hired to raise revenues by turning it into an episode format, centering on a mystery drama. She was eventually portrayed by Japanese television executives as the twenty-something beauty in several television and film roles, causing her to become a gaijin tarento (foreign talent). She served as a judge on the cult-hit cooking show Ryni no Tetsujin (Iron Chef).
Film career
In Quentin Tarantino's 2003 film Kill Bill Volume 1, Dreyfus portrayed Sofie Fatale. She was a member of the 2007 Gérardmer Film Festival (Festival international du film rêverie de Gérardmer), which honoured her Kill Bill co-star David Carradine.
Dreyfus appeared in Vinyan in 2008 and in Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds in 2009, as Francesca Mondino, a fictional French interpreter and mistress for Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels. In the Leos Carax short film Merde, she also appeared as a translator in the Japanese language film Tokyo.
