Known for its lush photography, memorable score, and the palpable chemistry between the two stars, A Man and a Woman was a rare on-screen romance in a skeptical era—and an enormous, award-winning hit. Aloof and elusive, Anouk Aimée soared to fame as a new kind of femme fatale, and Trintignant reignited his career after a break for military service in this story of a widow and a widower finding new love.
