#art #history: double diaboliques for connoisseurs of french cinema - & particularly simone signoret (born #otd in 1921), who was never afraid of risking her career to stay true to her endeavours in left-wing activism, human rights & social justice. she & her husband, yves montand, often showed solidarity with activists & striking workers by physically turning up to demonstrations to support them. [A SHORT THREAD]
