Ayyyy! Puzzle corner

July 14, 2008 in Ayyyy! with 7 Comments

In celebration of Bastille Day, this week’s puzzle corner is devoted to famous French actresses, both classic and modern. Study the photo montage below (click for a larger view) and identify the fashionable French femmes below. 

Answers will be put up on Wednesday morning.  In the meantime I will be wearing my Chanel suit, stylishly quaffing champagne and sharing buttery pastries with a clueless poodle.

Tres tres chic

    This is going to be tough, and I was BORN in France.
    1 Why do I think this is Julie Delpy?
    2 Isabelle Huppert. I love that outfit.
    3 Juliette Binoche?
    4 Bardot, bien sur!
    5 Isabelle Adjani?
    6 Guessing Inez de la Fressange, just because of all the Chanel on her and the evident ten-inch waist.
    7 Emanuelle Béart?
    8 ?
    9 Deneuve?
    10 ?

    #2 is Catherine Deneuve (in 8 Femmes). Could #5 be Marion Cotillard in La Vie En Rose ?

    Oh, DUH, of course you’re right. I think I’ve got residual Edith Prickley memories and got her mixed up with the cougar who wore glasses.

    The hint-o-meter says Jane Birkin or daughter is in here somewhere, in which case would she be #1 or #10?
