      I just left a comment on a different channel about her Room at the Top award. This talented gorgeous woman was amazing in that film! Her romance with Oscar was sexy, cynical & both were imminently doomed. That's such a brilliant and heartbreaking film, and it introduced me to her. ❤

      She is so fantastic to watch and listen to here.
      And I love the way she amusingly keeps touching her nose!
      The deep smoking is so out of style now.
      But didn't she even do this so expressively?
      She was uniquely beautiful in so many ways.

    There are so many interesting moments in this interview and comments as well.
    I noticed two details to mention : in the opening scene, to her right, apparently walking in a group, is the French actor Jean Marais.
    And regarding what some comment about the "interrogation" style of the BBC interviewer, Simone has an interesting smile when mentioning Jeanne d'Arc.
    Who was Jeanne (joan) fighting in defense of France? The British.

      What the hell does that odd remark mean?
      I would say such a "look" was definitely a compliment.
      Her husband, Yves Montand was an Italian Jew, born "Ivo Livi".
      There are SO many great Jews,
      especially when you consider what a minority they are in the world population.
      Certainly, without the hate and persecution they suffered, there would be so many more.

      I noticed the nose touching too. It's as if she is both thinking and comforting herself.
      Of course the cigarette smoking is so classic...but she does it well, even waveing the smoke away.
      All in all, she definitely had a unique, interesting and captivating style and was totally sincere and her own person.
      Her English is good and she chooses the words well.
      I adored/adore her...when I was a young woman and still now, as a "seasoned" woman.
      I could watch her forever.
      And especially since Yves had his "extra" fun, I could see Simone having hers too !

    • @betsylalich4570

      Also, it is quite common for people to change their names in different cultures.
      For instance the great French singer Charles Aznavour was of Armenian descent. His birth name was Aznavourian.
      But Simone WAS using her mother's name, which is not unusual in many cultures.
      Discrimination has never gone away. It is an evil sickness.
