Summary: God Created Woman, But the Devil made Bardot..
Review: I have seen this movie many times and think it's very entertaining. Brigitte Bardot is absolutly beautiful, and she has a free sprited bohemian style that makes her unlike anyone in movies, yet she can be as vulnerable & innocent as Marilyn Monroe .. I can see how this movie caused a uproar in 1956, But it's nothing compared with movies today. The opening scene with BB nude sun bathing wouldn't cause any commotion today, In fact, some parts are really funny to watch. The plot was loosely based on Marilyn Monroe's life as I orphan who is forced to marry so she doesn't have to go back to the orphanage. The problem is she is in love with two brothers, when she is married to one. There is also a older rich man offering her a life with him. It all leads to a wild erotic dance with BB in a sexy opened skirt, bare feet, and hair flying.. "This woman needs to be tamed" lol! I think Juliette was just a misunderstood, lost, lonely, girl, who's only power seemed to be her beauty and the attention she got from her many male admirers.. I would love to see the restored copy of the film, but I don't think it has any "English Dub" and I don't like reading sub titles. I hope they release another dvd with a dub option on it. This is one of the great classics of the era.It's easy to see how BB inspired the hippy generation with her bare feet and untamed hair. The Beatles said she was their favorite pin up girl! This was the movie that made her a internation star..

Summary: sparks flying off your screen
Review: In all her 48 movies, Brigitte Bardot never catches public imagination with more effect than she does here. Paradise on earth is just around the corner, she tells us, making the sparks fly off your screen. This edition is the new one, by the way, cleaned up in 2000. You will appreciate its fine use of colors.That really is all there is to say about this movie. But it's enough. More than enough. It is exactly the reason why 'Et Dieu créa la femme' (= And God created woman) is immortal.

Summary: And God Created Women But What Do They Want
Review: It is preciously rare to see raw human truths portrayed in a work of art -this film succeeds. Brigitte Bardot plays the young orphan Juliette trying to come to terms with the power and curse of being a beautiful woman. She wants to have fun, she wants to be loved, but few are able to see past her beautiful body and irreverent behavior. One man tries to buy her love and another uses raw male sexual appeal. Both men fail to completely win her affection primarily because of their own inability to admit how completely they love and desire her. A third, most unlikely man, wins her affection by treating her with kindness and love, rescuing her when the world turn against her and defending her honor even against his own mother. When she betrays him, he responds physically, expressing outrage, and than offers forgiveness. It is at the moment of his physical expression of outrage that he wins her love completely. This film expresses the profundity of feminine attractiveness and provides a glimpse at the answer to the Freudian question, "what do women want?". Expressing the answer in words risks oversimplification; however, one might say that women want the freedom to express their femininity and sexuality within the confines of a loving, supportive and respectful relationship.

Summary: Brigette Bardot's best and most notorious film.
Review: Only those who were teenages or adults back in 1957 can remember the impact that this often banned movie had at this time! It had an unabashedly bare Brigette Bardot playing Juliette, a youthful temptress who drew the attentions of a rich widower and her husband's older brother, cuckolding her naive and unsuspecting husband. The scenery of St. Tropez is delightful; but seeing so much of Bardot is even more so. This is one not to miss!

Summary: Bardot's Voice
Review: The only disappointment is that someone else dubbed Brigitte Bardot's voice. So if you are used to the sound of her voice it is a bit jarring. Other than that, it is an enjoyable film.

Summary: Visually pleasing movie
Review: This is a visually pleasing movie. The color and cinematography are very good. There are lush green landscapes and brilliant blue seascapes. The acting by the cast is just fine. Even the lesser characters have some good lines. The script is comprehensible, mostly believable and even amusing at times. The movie is sensual but not at all erotic by today's standards. In fact the famous movie still, a topview of a nude Bardot in bed covered by very little, which appeared in magazines at the time of the movie's U.S. release and which suggested a more erotic film is not in this 'uncut' version. Bardot is simply a marvel and she gives a fine performance here. However, I didn't find this movie as good or as enjoyable as some of Bardot's better comedies, e.g., Une Parisienne and Viva Maria. Overall a decent but not great movie.

Summary: a groundbreaking film
Review: This review is for the Criterion Collection DVD edition of the film. This release was supervised by director Roger Vadim who died while the DVD was being produced. This film highly controversal at the time of the release in the US (it was considered racy) but is tame by today's standards.
It got a PG rating for it's 1978 rerelease in the US The film was also remade in 1988 by the same director and title and the remake got an R rating. The original French title is "Et Dieu créa la femme" The film is about a young woman whose hedonistic tendencies cause problems in the town she is living in. Her husband attempts to calm her but that also causes problems. The Criterion DVD has a theatrical trailer in English and there is also a restoration demonstration.

Summary: Beautiful looking dud
Review: Uh oh...this gorgeous transfer from Criterion is the only consolation for a lame turkey of a movie. The material is very dated, and there is little irony at work here, just a director in the thrall of Bardot. When Vadim called 'Action' on this one, he left content, narrative and interest at the back door. For Bardot crazies and completists only.

Summary: She was looking for the captain of her heart
Review: What do you do when you've got a sensuous, sexy wife who has a strong need to mate with the alpha male, even if that male isn't you? Why, you slap her around a little, and wow! she is swooned by your commanding style and your marriage is saved. This, believe it or not, was standard psychology back in the fifties. It was the hidden, "Freudian" kind of subconscious understanding about women known only to the most experienced and sophisticated of men. I guess I need to say that this is not a very good movie and whatever you do, don't get the dubbed version. The woman reading Brigitte Bardot's lines sounds like an annoying cosmetics school drop out while the translations of the everyday French greetings and idioms are stupid in the extreme. I would say don't even bother with this, but this IS Brigitte Bardot at twenty-two, the crême de la crême of sex kittens displayed here in her bare feet avec quick shots of her perfect caboose and very pouty mouth. For all connoisseurs of the type, e.g., Marilyn Monroe, Liv Ullmann, and lately Drew Barrymore, women who radiate pure sex and sensuality, whose nature is so naturally warm and loving that they cannot resist stray dogs-or stray men-BB is not to be missed. I just wish they knew how to use a camera in those days and weren't so darn prudish.
