Through video footage of Bardot, interviews with the paparazzi, and still photos of Bardot from magazine covers and elsewhere, director Rozier investigates some of the ramifications of international movie stardom, specifically the loss of privacy to the paparazzi.

Aa Columbia 2-reel comedy starring Tom Kennedy and Monty Collins in NEW NEWS (1937).
