R.I.P. Brigitte Bardot

A “French export as important as Renault cars"
- President Charles de Gaulle (unknown date, likely late '50s)

“the most liberated woman in post-war France ... a "locomotive of women’s history"
- Simone de Beauvoir (1959)

"Her films, her voice, her dazzling fame, her initials, her sorrows, her generous passion for animals ... Brigitte Bardot embodied a life of freedom."
- Emmanuel Marcron (December 28, 2025)
