Brigitte Bardot, who died at 91, became an icon after starring in the 1956 film 'And God Created Woman.' The movie, shot in Saint-Tropez, depicted a carefree teenager expressing desire, which outraged French censors and fueled a "sex kitten" myth. Bardot's portrayal of Juliette, a free-spirited character unburdened by societal taboos, resonated with many French women, symbolizing a desire for change and freedom during a period of societal shifts.
