And Bardot … became a blonde
A pretty brown-haired starlet from 1952 to 1956, Brigitte Bardot emerged as a global star and sex symbol with hair newly bleached in Roger Vadim’s Et Dieu ... créa la femme/And God Created Woman (1956).

A star is torn (to pieces)
This chapter analyses the reception of Brigitte Bardot in the Cinémonde readers’ letters for the years 1957, 1958 and 1959. The aim is to access the opinions of “ordinary” filmgoers to complement our view of the star, normally derived from professional writers and journalists, and the influence of gender on these views. The analysis shows that Bardot is perceived, positively and negatively, as the epitome of a new form of stardom, that of mass-me…

Jean Gabin
Acteur mythique, Jean Gabin est peut-être la plus grande star du cinéma hexagonal. Cet ouvrage tente de retracer ce qu'a été, des années 1930 à nos jours, sa place dans la culture cinématographique des Français. La première partie offre une rétrospective minutieuse de sa carrière, à l'aide de documents et témoignages de première main. Deux figures jalonnent ce parcours : celle du jeune homme révolté de l'époque du Front populaire, héros du réalis…
La Haine
La Haine is a cult classic with cinema audiences, recently re-released and available on DVD. Ginette Vincendeau is top authority internationally on French cinema, who writes (e.g. Sight and Sound) and broadcasts (e.g. Front Row Radio 4) on it regularly. It is a hugely enjoyable, exciting book written with great panache and accessibility. Released in 1995, La Haine is the black and white chronicle of 24 hours in the life of a mixed-race young male…
Stars and Stardom in French Cinema
French cinema is second only to Hollywood in the number of its movie stars who have emerged to achieve international fame. France is, in fact, arguably the only country other than the United States to have an international “star system.” Yet these glamorous and charismatic stars differ from their U.S. counterparts in that they maintain more freedom to control their own images and often straddle both mainstream and auteur cinema. Ginette Vincendea…
