Long a symbol of glamour and desire, Brigitte Bardot's image was forged in a cluster of cult films and pop duets. File photo of French actress Brigitte Bardot (C) giving a press conference on December 1965 in Hollywood for the film "Viva Maria", directed by Louis Malle (background). 'Bonnie and Clyde' (1968)Bardot had a brief and tumultuous affair with legendary French songwriter Serge Gainsbourg. The single was from an album of the same name that reached number 12 on the Billboard Top 200. Gainsbourg also first recorded his famously steamy "Je t'aime… moi non plus" duet with Bardot but she later opposed its release.
