A companion to "The Cult Films of Brigitte Lahaie"

Over 100 magnificent photos and a revealing text written by the actress.

This crowdfunded book was published in France, but this edition is in English.

From the publisher:

In 2016, the book The Cult Films of Brigitte Lahaie was released, after three years in the making along with the actress to explore her formidable cinematic adventures. In 2022, we released an English-language version of this reference book, which has become a source of pride for Brigitte herself.

Last year, after she moved from her former house, Brigitte invited us to consult all the photos she had accumulated over the years, whether taken by prestigious photographers or by amateurs, by friends or family members, or by the men who counted in her life. It very quickly became clear to us that there was material here for a very beautiful album, with plenty of unseen images, which would tell her life and career, from the first steps of a shy young woman in front of a camera lens to a famous and admired radio host.

Brigitte offered to write the text for the album herself. And when she let us read the first chapters, we were both astonished and captivated, surprised to learn so much about her. After two particularly eventful years since the end of 2021, with a house fire, a divorce and a painful horse-riding accident, Brigitte has learned to let go, and now feels totally free to tell everything.

Brigitte tells us about her early years, then her entry into the world of adult cinema, at the height of its golden age in the late 70's in France. Then the desert crossing she experienced after her farewell to X-rated films. Her meeting with René Chateau, about which Brigitte opens up for the first time: her own way of paying tribute to this great man who has recently passed away, with whom she lived an intense story, both passionately and professionally.

When she left René, in order to regain the freedom she had always been so fond of, she turned her back on cinema once and for all, and chose to change her life. She left Paris to rejuvenate and to be close to animals and nature.

In 2001, a new adventure began. Her radio show made her France's favorite confidante and advisor on love and sexuality, a source of new fulfillment for her.

Life is always full of surprises, and here she is, facing new adventures in the space of just a few months. She faces them all with the strength and courage that are her trademarks. Today, she embarks on a new life, with a new-found serenity.

Lahaie by Brigitte is a beautiful 176-page full-color hardcover book with soft-touch effect, in 25.80 x 28.40 cm format. It features over 100 photos, mainly from Brigitte's private collection.
