Les Idoles excerpt (1968) by Marc'O

This clip is taken from the 1968 film “Les Idoles” by French director Marc’O, about the rise, malaise and fall of three French pop and rock’n’roll stars, (otherwise known as “yé-yé” -The Idols), and the madness they are propelled towards by themselves and those with a vested interest in their pop success.
