He was married to Czech-born French film actress Florence Marly from 1937 to 1955. Work Chenal was best known for film noir thrillers such as the 1937 film '' L'Alibi'', where he worked with Erich von Stroheim and Louis Jouvet.

Chenal was Jewish and was forced in 1942 to flee occupied France with his wife, Czech actress Florence Marly, for South America. He made a number of films while living in Argentina and more in France after the war; but his post-war work never achieved the success and popularity of his pre-war efforts.Chenal, Pierre, ''La dernière tempête'' (L'Aventure vécue), ">rench_Edition,_Paperback">Chenal,_Pierre,_''La_dernière_tempête''_(L'Aventure_vécue),_[French_Edition,_Paperback/nowiki ...
