Roger Vadim

26.01.1928, Paris, France - 11.02.2000, Paris, Francuska

Roger Vadim is perhaps more famous for his relationships with the actresses
than for his own movies. His memoirs, as Leonard Maltin ironically writes, are
modestly named Bardot, Denevue, Fonda: My life with the three most beautiful
women in the world.His films are more interesting as a visual experience than because of their
profound ideas. The most famous one is with Jane Fonda - Barbarella.
