Bardot, international French film star, trail-blazing sexual rebel, 60s icon and fashion legend, is a vibrant addition to the 'Film Stars' series. Ginette Vincendeau's study of Bardot explores the significance of one of the most famous, fascinating and controversial of all French film stars. He combines detailed textual analysis of Bardot's performance throughout her rise to stardom with a historical contextualisation of her star persona in post-war French society and the international film industry and places a spotlight on the complex relationship with French national identity both home and abroad.
