AND HER LITTLE DOG TOO

I'm off to see my hair stylist, then I'm headed to the pet groomer. Conveniently, they're the same person.

Bet you didn’t notice the dog at first, but there he is, such a happy boy, clutched to the bosom of French actress France Anglade. The beautiful mademoiselle Anglade was born in 1942 in Constantine, France, and if you can’t quite place that town, that’s because today it’s in Algeria. See, the French thought of Algeria as just a southerly department of France, which must have made the locals who’d had their land taken over feel a little better about it. Anglade briefly took over French cinema, appearing in an amazing seventeen films from 1962 to 1964. She continued acting until 1994, and when all was said and done had starred in efforts such as Le plus vieux métier du monde, aka The Oldest Profession24 Hours To Kill, and Les bricoleurs, aka Who Stole the Body? This amazing photo first appeared in Cinémonde magazine in 1967.
