Emmanuelle Béart


Must be the way she pouts constantly. Those lips, that mouth and those enormous eyes. They keep you glued to the screen, be it in the movies or at home in front of the tv. Emmanuelle Béart is an actress with magnetic qualities. A lot of fansites (here, here or here) agree. She played in films like Manon des Sources, Mission:Impossible, Héros de la Famille and 8 Femmes. In the last two she sang as well - being the daugther of chansonnier Guy Béart, she met Leo Ferré and George Brassens at a young ages, "nice uncles to go and pick cherries with", she once said in an interview. She appears in very sexy lingerie-commercials, but is an activist for human rights as wel, she recently wrote an article for Le Monde about illegal immigrants and their terrible housing conditions (here) in Paris.
With three movies in post-production, we're still hearing from Béart, one way or another. And this ofcourse is a dream of all of us.

  5. There's a song by Would-Be-Goods called Emanuelle Béart. Which would be off-topic, as it's sung in English, safe for the fact that the band has several French songs as well. (All of them sung by the magnificient voice of Jessica Griffin.) In fact, just an hour ago, I was thinking that I should send you some of these.

    In the meantime, here's a realaudio version of said song.
