Bernadette Lafont
A brunette bombshell who rose to fame in her homeland during the French New Wave, Bernadette Lafont is a French actress most closely associated with the films of renowned director Claude Chabrol. Her debut role came in an early short film by the legendary François Truffaut entitled "The Mischief Makers," and she firmly established her movie career with a leading turn in Chabrol's 1960 drama "The Good Time Girls." Staying active in subsequent decades and well into her 70s, Lafont rarely ventured outside of France, comfortable in her status as an esteemed national treasure.
