The french

are just so beautiful, seriously - I don't think they make ugly people, EVAH.






After filming Bernardo Bertolucci's "Last Tango in Paris," the actress Maria Schneider checked herself into an institution. After filming Bernardo Bertolucci's "The Dreamers," an incestuous tragedy with plenty of its own full-frontal nudity, the actress Eva Green became a Bond Girl. The best Bond girl ever, according to Entertainment Weekly. Despite her pitch-perfect English in that film, Green was raised in France (her mother is the actress Marlene Jobert) and she has labored intensely to lose her French accent since moving to England as a teenager. On that front, as well as many others, Green has continued to succeed: in the upcoming film "Cracks," she plays an instructor at an English boarding school. Also in theaters soon is "Franklyn," a dystopic noir co-starring Ewan McGregor in which Green plays a schizophrenic. Bertolucci once famously said that Green "is so beautiful it's indecent," but she is mightily talented too.
