In the ‘Paris of the Middle East,’ Brigitte Bardot is mourned alongside memories of a golden era
DUBAI: The death of French film legend Brigitte Bardot at 91 has focused attention on one of the 20th century’s most captivating cultural icons — and a remarkable, if brief, moment when her star power intersected with Lebanon’s own golden age. In March 1967, Bardot arrived in Beirut for a four-day visit that would briefly place the French screen legend at the heart of a Middle Eastern hotspot of glamor and modernity. At the time, Beirut was celebrated as the “Paris of the Middle East,” known for its luxuriant hotels, lively nightlife and cosmopolitan mix of cultures.
