Catherine Deneuve is indisputably one of the world's most
celebrated actresses, both in her own native France and throughout
the world. Her career has spanned five decades during which she has
worked with the most significant of French auteurs, as well as
forging partnerships with international directors such as Bunuel
and Polanski. The Deneuve star persona has attained such iconic
status as to come to symbolise the very essence of French womanhood
and civic identity. In this wide-ranging and authoritative
collection of essays by a selection of international film academics
and writers, the Deneuve persona is scrutinised and illuminated.
Beyond the glamorous iconographic status of Yves Saint Laurent's
muse, and the epitome of sexual inviolability, Deneuve's status as
actress is foregrounded. The book will be essential reading for
students and lecturers in star studies.
