After years of photographing the world of high fashion at Vogue, Klein created one of the most biting satires of the industry and the then-emerging genre of confessional television. Polly Maggoo is a neophyte Brooklynite model in Paris, the subject of a TV exposé called Qui êtes-vous?, who is slavishly pursued by all manner of men. The film took the European press by storm with its outrageous design and tongue-in-cheek portrayal of the 1960s pop explosion. 1966, 35mm, in French with English subtitles, 105 minutes.
