The first movie I saw Anouk Aimée in was A Man and a Woman (Un homme et une femme, 1996) written and directed by Claude Lelouch and was moved by her beauty, that is both sophisticated and mysterious in some way. Some of her other unforgettable movie roles were as Maddalena in La Dolce Vita (1960) and Luisa Anselmi in 8 1/2 (1963), both by Frederico Fellini. I also loved her as Anne in André Delvaux’s Un soir, un train (One Night... a Train, 1968), and as Barbara Spaggiari in Bernardo Bertolucci’s Tragedy of a Ridiculous Man (1981).
