“You can only perceive real beauty in a person as they get older”
~ Anouk Aimée
(1932 - 2024)
Those of us of a certain age were somewhat saddened today to hear of the passing of the great French actress Anouk Aimée. For sure 92 years old is a long and productive life, but it is all the memories of our own youth that come back.
Anouk stared in one of the seminal movies of the 1960’s, “A Man and A Woman”, possibly the most tender and romantic movie ever made. I’m sure many of us can remember exactly where we first saw it and who we were with. I know I found it so emotional and just thinking about it well…
Bill Klein took this wonderful photo of her four years before the film catapulted her to world fame.
Rest in Peace Anouk.
