I know it was an old question about Batrice's ability to speak english, but since many here seem to have gotten it wrong over the years, I thought I might add my two cents.
I remember having read some of her old interviews in old French magazines where she had commented that even her relationship with Rupert Everett (yeah, he may not be
totally
gay, who knew!) was finally doomed because she couldn't speak english.
And even in the films where she did have a couple of english lines, she quoth here:

Batrice: Well, Abel Ferrara and Jim Jarmusch wanted to have me in some of their other projects, but due to the fact that I don't speak English, it wasn't possible for me to participate, contrary to Jarmusch's "Night on Earth" and Ferrara's "The Blackout" where my characters were allowed to speak French.
Q: So, you would have done more movies with Jarmusch or Ferrara if they offered you French-language roles?
Batrice: Yes, indeed. Actually, Ferrara offered me a role in his latest feature about the Dominic Strauss Kahn case, "Welcome to New York". He wanted me to play the wife of Dominic Strauss Kahn, but once again, I had to decline because of the language.

"One story I will never forget her trying to shoplift jewelry by tucking the pieces in her thigh-high boots! Wild!"
Yes - and after she got arrested and had to explain to the press why she did it she said "oh, but i love jewellery". I beeping live her!!

Bardot and Dalle are totally different, please Dalle is unique, she plays very good, she's smart, etc. Bardot is an old, racist, homophobic woman. she never had a quarter of Dalle's talent.

I should think so. She spoke English w5b4ell (with smouldering French accent of course) in my fave movie with her, "The Blackout."

It's the 'Bardot' syndrome. Affects all true French babes.
Very sad.

God, she looks plaint ugly now!

Her real life has been even wilder than some of her movies, I think! One story I will never forget her trying to shoplift jewelry by tucking the pieces in her thigh-high boots! Wild! I think the drug stuff has really affected her looks. Still, I would LOVE to meet her too.

After watching her movies, and reading about her real life. I wonder if she's really as unstable as shes painted to be.
My god, I would love to meet her.

Never mind, I answered my own question

I was so shocked when I read it here that I posted before I searchedSigh
Never got her life straightened out, did she!

Is the info about her marrying a prison inmate (in her IMDB profile) true?! Oh Beatriceshe's a piece of work. Last picture I saw of her, she looked pretty rough. I think she used to be one of the most beautiful women on earth.

i believe so, especially since she was going to play in the sixth sense.
