Boulevard Du Rhum

[Machine Translation] Her eyes, her lips, even her toes. The myth of Brigitte Bardot is revived. Brigitte Bardot Retrospective Vol. 3! An actress whose life was not obsessed with wealth or fame, Brigitte Bardot was a fashion icon of the 1960s, a symbol of freedom and liberation who broke taboos with her positive sensuality, and the first French actress to become a major international star! In 2024, on the occasion of the 90th anniversary of her birth, a total of 11 films were screened, which were widely introduced not only among traditional movie fans but also among women and young people. The third and final installment of the BBR series is a mystery featuring the re-teaming of BB and Michel Poireon, a maritime adventure film that was described as "the birth of Brigitte Bardot" by the New York Times, and the three best films by master filmmaker Louis Malle based on BB's own life story! Boulevard of Rum": BB, the French version of Marilyn Monroe, and Lino Ventura, the French version of John Wayne.

She was active in Hollywood during the transition to talkies and gave birth to the term "it girl," a representative "sex symbol" of the 1920s. The final song, "The Joy of Love," a famous Elvis Presley cover, sung by BB, is also unforgettable. BB called the film "one of the success stories of my life," and the New York Times called it "the birth of Brigitte Bardot," but just two years after its release, BB retired from show business.

He is left penniless, but after a deadly "shoot-in-the-dark" gambit, he wins enough money to buy a new ship and heads for Jamaica. He names his new ship "The Lady of My Heart" and plans to transport rum again. One day, however, he enters a movie theater to avoid the rain and falls in love with Linda Lariou (Brigitte Bardot), the lead actress in the silent film "The Leopard in Love". He became such a big fan of the actress that he saw her films at every port, and even put up newspaper and magazine clippings in his cabin. Eventually, before a big job, he runs into Linda herself on a beach in Cuba. She is smitten with Colney's passion, and soon the two are in love. Linda quits the movie business once and for all and goes to sea with her beloved captain... This is the first Blu-ray release of the film in Japan. The film will include the Brigitte Bardot Retrospective BB 90th Anniversary Theatrical Trailer (planned).
