This Roger Vadim production was released in the US as ...And God Created Woman. Vadim's then-wife Brigitte Bardot plays the central character, a curvaceous nymphet with a voracious sexual appetite. In fact, it isn't what Bardot does in bed but what she might do that drives the three… More

Critic Reviews

  • Bosley Crowther, New York Times

    We can't recommend this little item as a sample of the best in Gallic films. It is clumsily put together and rather bizarrely played.

  • Emanuel Levy, EmanuelLevy.Com

    By today's standards the film is tame, but back in 1956, Vadim's feature debut was sensational and scandalous, catapulting Brigitte Bardot (who was married to Vadim) to the status of international sex icon.

  • Cole Smithey, ColeSmithey.com

    A great movie to eat ice cream to. Brigitte Bardot - WOW!

  • Dennis Schwartz, Ozus' World Movie Reviews

    Adding up to hardly anything more than a bunch of snapshots of Bardot posturing as a sex kitten in various stages of undress.

  • Pablo Villaca, Cinema em Cena

    A fragilidade do roteiro e o tom de melodrama poderiam transformar este filme em uma experiência nada memorável - mas é aí que a presença incrivelmente sensual e luminosa de Bardot faz a diferença, salvando a produção.

    Ok flick, pretty racy, especially for its time. Brigitte Bardot is gorgeous as the free-spirited woman that all the men lust for, One thing particularly stuck with me though, that takes away from my rating. One man just aches to get it one with Brigitte. She gives in to him because… More

    As I can recall, looking at Bardot was the only reason to see it.

  • Tom S


    Bardot is something, and the final sequence was interesting, but this movie doesn't really say much for women.
