With the passing of Brigitte Bardot, French cinema has lost one of its most iconic faces and influential muses. Bardot was more than a film star; she embodied a new era in which female freedom, sensuality and individuality took centre stage on the silver screen. At a time when Hollywood was dominated by stars such as Marilyn Monroe, Bardot was France's answer: less polished, rawer, but precisely because of that, authentic and revolutionary.
