The Famous One-legged Actress Sarah Bernhardt 025

마크 트웨인이 생전에 말했단다 이세상엔 다섯 종류의 여배우가 있다고.. 못하는 배우, 괜찮은 배우, 잘하는 배우, 뛰어난 배우  … 그리고 사라 번 하트가 있다. Sarah Bernhardt (1844–1923) was an extraordinary performer, so much so that her name became synonymous with acting. Yet her importance extended beyond the world of theater—she was an icon of French nationalism, […]
