Movies: "The Poor Man's Julie Christie"

Well, I guess a girl can be called a lot worse things. Worse or not they could be called The Battersea Bardot.

An old forgotten photo

An old forgotten photo that I found in an antique/thrift store yesterday. The man running the place said the photo had come from a (probably long gone) restaurant called Pelikan in Solna (in or close to Stockholm) that supposedly had variety shows. I think it's more plausible it came from an old cinema. Be that how it may, she is a great beauty that deserves to be shown.

"Patricia Medina, Hollywood's new star in the "Arabian nights"-genre, doesn't appear to lack what it takes to portray oriental beauties"

La Roller Girl

It's time for another one of Gainsbourg's girls, or rather Godard's - Anna Karina. She started out as a Danish model but made a name for herself as an actor in french Nouvelle vague movies directed by Godard. Read more here and here.

Serge Gainsbourg, of course, made her sing a little too. Their great song Rollergirl can be found here on the wonderful blog called Spiked Candy specialized in french 60's pop, ye-ye girls and so on.

UPDATE: Mr Bedazzled - Spike Priggen - sent me this song he wrote about Anna Karina some 20 years ago. Thanks Spike!
