Interesting that she made it to this thread when Johnny Halliday did not. I'll admit to having a moderate appreciation for her songs in general, though I do like a few, mainly the Gainsbourg-penned ones.

Eh, they were both very good performers who lived and died on the strength of whoever wrote for them.

They were both in Godard movies!

Halliday was pretty good in Detective and Gall was in Masculin Feminin.
