Product Description

United Kingdom released, PAL/Region 2 DVD: LANGUAGES: French ( Dolby Digital 2.0 ), English ( Subtitles ), SPECIAL FEATURES: Biographies, Black & White, Filmographies, Interactive Menu, Photo Gallery, Scene Access, Trailer(s), SYNOPSIS: Variously titled La Parisienne and Une Parisienne, Parisienne, this Franco-Italian co-production is one of Brigitte Bardot's best vehicles. The daughter of the Premier of France (no, not DeGaulle!), La Bardot is married to Henri Vidal, the premier's chief aide. When Vidal shows signs of straying from his marital vows, Bardot decides to fight fire with fire. She enchants visiting nobleman Charles Boyer, who invites her to a romantic rendezvous on the Riviera. The outraged Vidal tracks down the would-be lovers, only to discover that nothing has happened-both Bardot and Boyer fell victim to head colds, and spent the weekend sneezing rather than smooching. ...Une parisienne ( La Parisienne ) ( Una Parigina )

4.0 out of 5 stars A must for Bardot fans, 29 Dec 2007
By 
Phoust (London, England) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)   
This review is from: Une Parisienne [DVD] (DVD)
By 1957 Brigitte Bardot was a star, correction Brigette Bardot was an enormous star on a par with Marilyn Monroe in the United States, however her brand of sexuality was different to that of Monroe's. Where Monroe exuded a sexual vulnerability Bardot's was more that of naïve sexual delinquency that pouted its way through her films with a visual appeal similar to that of Simone Simon in the 1930s. "Une Parisiene" may be one Bardot's finest displays of her comic ability as an actor, she is on top form electrifying every scene she is in, which is pretty the entire film. There is never a dull moment in this screwball comedy with plenty of repartee between the couple which makes it a joy to watch. Of note also is another instance of the bikini Bardot wears which did more to popularise the swimming costume in popular culture of the 1950s than anyone else, that is before Ursula Andress appeared in "Dr. No"(1962).

Michel Boisrond direction is competent never losing sight of its objective which of course is Bardot whom he directed many times, yet he has great comic timing which is really another appeal of this film. Boisrond was a fan of Rene Clair (Le Million,1931; A Nous La Liberte,1931), whom he served his apprenticeship with in the late 40s.

A must for Bardot fans.

3.0 out of 5 stars Bardot elevates tiresome sex comedy, 9 Jan 2011
By 
The CinemaScope Cat - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Une Parisienne [DVD] (DVD)
An immature young girl (Brigitte Bardot) marries a philanderer (Henri Vidal, whose character is named Michel Legrand) and when she suspects he's still seeing his ex-mistress (Madeleine Lebeau), she concocts a plot to make him jealous by having an affair with a visiting Prince (Charles Boyer). This rather silly sex farce directed by Michel Boisrond is enlivened by the pert presence of the sexy Bardot at the peak of her nubile beauty. Why anyone married to the vixenish Bardot would even think of cheating with a mistress is beyond understanding but for plot purposes, we (try to) suspend belief. Comedies like this need to be a cinematic souffle but what we end up with is bread and butter. But oh that Brigitte ..... viva Bardot!

The C'est La Vie British import is colorful but alas not wide screen.

4.0 out of 5 stars SEXY BLONDE BRIGITTE BARDOT IN FINE COMEDY, 27 Aug 2010
By 
Mr. W. J. Wright - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Une Parisienne [DVD] (DVD)
UNE PARISIENNE,1957,Technicolor,stars sexy French blonde stunner BRIGITTE BARDOT or BB in a very fine
cheeky comedy role,where she flirts here,there,and everywhere[for us lucky dudes]. Also starring with BB
are CHARLES BOYER,HENRI VIDAL,NADIA GRAY.
BB plays Brigitte Laurier,a spoilt and innocent daughter of a French Ambassador,Premier Laurier[Andre Luguet],
she cons one of her father's top aides,Michel[H.Vidal]into marrying her[lucky fella]. Soon Brigitte's brattish
ways rile her hubby and he is seen flirting with old girlfriends to teach her a lesson. In retaliation,Brigitte
flirts with Prince Charles[no not that one-but C.Boyer].
Michel is then amazed by his wife Brigitte's jealousy,and her flirting arouses and the two of them begin a cat-and-mouse
game of sexual teasing until they both realise they really do love each other. Eventually settling into happily married life together.
Filmed amongst some stunning Paris locations. UNE PARISIENNE or it's British/American title of PARISIENNE is a French/Italian Production.
The dvd is in superb condition and is in French language with English subtitles. Extras include a Biography on Brigitte Bardot.
A well acted fun comedy with stunning BB.
Regards,Bill.
