Gee, the folks at Turner Classic Movies have had a rough December. It looks like they're going to have to update "TCM Remembers" again, now that Brigitte Bardot has left the planet.
We cats are conflicted about Bardot. Her animal-rights activism was excellent, and the foundation she established in her name fought against abuses like seal hunting, bullfighting and vivisection. But at the same time, she was openly right-wing, marrying into the political circle of Jean-Marie Le Pen. She also thought the #MeToo movement was ridiculous. Maybe things were different in Europe, where she made her films. (Or maybe she was just wrong.) Let's put it this way: If she were American and MAGA, that would definitely cancel her.
But it's hard to argue with her when she says, "People get on my nerves." We cats PURR and HISS at the same time.
