Brigitte Bardot dies, French femme fatale and cultural phenomenon

The first indelible image of her: sunbathing on the French Riviera.
Her figure, from her tawny hair to her golden feet, stretches the width of the movie screen in languid sensuality. A dapper older suitor stops by, and he is not the last to be captivated and shattered by her bemused smile and insolent pout. Later, barefoot in a nightclub, she performs a mambo of such erotic exhibitionism that it drives her movie husband, gun in hand and cuckolded by his virile brother, to the brink of insanity.
