One of France's most celebrated film stars, Nathalie Baye, has died aged 77, French media report.

President Emmanuel Macron said the much-loved stalwart of French cinema had been "an actress with whom we loved, dreamed and grew up".

A four-time acting winner at the Césars - France's equivalent of the Oscars - Baye starred in some 80 films in her lifetime after breakout roles in the early 1970s.

Her family told the French news agency AFP she had died at her home in Paris on Friday evening from a form of dementia.
