What’s New Pussycat

I first saw Françoise Hardy at the end of the a very silly film called Whats New Pussycat, and then she sang on Blurs single ‘To the End’.
In the film Michael James (Peter O’Toole) has just got married to Carole (Romy Schneider) and calls the mayor’s assistant (Françoise Hardy) ‘pussycat’. Carole takes this to be Micheal up to his old tricks and storms off. Leaving a bemused Françoise Hardy at her desk. As one of the most photographed women of the sixties, and all these photos now float around the web, occasionally being collated into collections, here’s one from the selvedgeyard.
