French Beauty

Interviews with French movie stars - starting with Bardot, Moreau, and Deneuve - are interspersed with clips from their films, advertisements featuring the women, and documentary footage as they attend film festivals and commercial events. These women discuss their beauty and sense of self, being nude in a film, what it may mean to be French, their loss of privacy, and other pitfalls and benefits of success. There is also an extensive look at the use Couture makes of these stars.
