Career

In 1952, Bardot made another appearance on the cover of Elle, which led to an offer for a minor role in Jean Boyer’s comedy Crazy for Love, which starred Bourvil. For the little part of playing the main character’s cousin, she received 200,000 francs (about US$575 in 1952). Willy Rozier’s Manina, the Girl in the Bikini (1952) featured Bardot in her second motion picture appearance.

She also appeared in the 1953 motion pictures His Father’s Portrait and The Long Teeth. In 1953, Bardot played a minor part in Act of Love, a Hollywood-financed movie starring Kirk Douglas that was being filmed in Paris. When she went to the Cannes Film Festival in April 1953, she attracted media notice.

In 1954, Bardot starred in the French adventure picture Caroline and the Rebels and the Italian melodrama Concert of Intrigue. In the 1955 film School for Love, directed by Marc Allégret, she played a flirty student opposite Jean Marais. In 1955, Bardot portrayed Dirk Bogarde’s love interest in Doctor at Sea, her first significant English-language role. In Britain that year, the movie ranked third in terms of popularity.

In filmmaker René Clair’s 1955 film The Grand Maneuver, Bardot has a minor supporting part alongside Gérard Philipe and Michçois Morgan. She had a larger role in Georges Lacombe’s 1956 film The Light Across the Street. She also played Helen’s handmaiden in the Hollywood movie Helen of Troy.

After that, Bardot starred in four films. First, Bardot portrayed a disruptive schoolgirl in the 1956 musical Naughty Girl. It was co-written by Roger Vadim and directed by Michel Boisrond. It was a huge hit and became the 12th most popular movie in France that year.

Vadim’s comedy Plucking the Daisy (1956) came after it. The Bride Is Much Too Beautiful (1956) starring Louis Jourdan succeeded this. And God Created Woman (1956) was the last melodrama. Bardot starred opposite Jean-Louis Trintignant and Curt Jurgens in the film, which marked Vadim’s directorial debut.

The movie, which was one of the top ten most popular movies in Great Britain in 1957, was an even greater hit not only in France but globally as well. It was about an immoral adolescent in an otherwise respectable small-town environment.

With $4 million—what author Peter Lev calls “an astonishing amount for a foreign film at that time”—it was the highest-grossing foreign film ever distributed in the United States. Bardot became a global celebrity as a result. She was dubbed the “sex kitten” as early as 1956. The movie caused controversy in the US, and some theater owners were even arrested for showing it. According to Paul O’Neil of Life (June 1958), Bardot’s global appeal is described as follows.

During an effort to denounce the killing of seal pups and seal hunting on the Canadian ice floe, Bardot met Paul Watson in 1977, the same year he established the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society. Bardot accepted Watson’s invitation to attend the ice floe in support of animal preservation. The pictures of Bardot sleeping down near to the seal pups were viewed all around the world. Watson and Bardot continued to be friends.

Bardot utilized her celebrity to support animal welfare after making appearances in over 40 films and putting out multiple albums. The Brigitte Bardot Foundation for the Welfare and Protection of Animals was founded by her in 1986. She converted to vegetarianism and used auctions to generate three million francs (about US$430,000 in 1986) for the foundation.
