Simone Signoret The Star as Cultural Sign

"In what may be the most in-depth study yet published of a film star's body of work, Susan Hayward charts the career of Simone Signoret, one of the great French actresses of the 20th Century. Signoret-who won an Oscar in 1960 for her performance in Room at the Top-was a key figure in French cinema for 40 years. But it is not so much her longevity that impresses, as it is the quality of work she produced as her career progressed."
