The film won the Palme d'Or at the 1959 Cannes Film Festival and the 1960 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. I loved this movie. She married Camus, but divorced him soon after and married Belgian actor Eric Vander.

positive · AI labelView post →Yeah, but that's a complicated topic. The original category title, "Best Foreign Language Film," doesn't make sense either, since the U.S. has no national language. What's more, a) the term "foreign" has racist connotations, and b) any American could make a film in any language too.
