She cut her hair and had the world at her feet

If there's a thing I really love, it's an oldfashioned movie. The clothing, the whole setting, the language ("It's marvelous, marvelous!") and the wonderful actors and actresses are delightful. Jean Seberg is one of them, the boyish American actress from the '60s.

This is a clip from the movie "Bonjour tristesse", made in 1958. Jean plays Cecile, a seventeen years old girl who spends her summer holiday with her father.



I haven't seen any movies with the lovely Jean yet, but I'm searching for this one. Or her most famous one, "À Bout de Souffle", which was the French classic that listed her as a screen icon. Sounds très bien, n'est-ce pas?

And to make this post a bit versatile, here's this great editorial inspired by Jean Seberg. I like that haircut a lot!
