With a career spanning nearly six decades and approximately 50 films, Bisset remains a prominent figure in Hollywood. To many, she embodies the grace and allure reminiscent of the classic stars from yesteryear.
Renowned for her natural poise, Bisset has consistently shunned excessive makeup, embracing the passage of time with authenticity and style.
Throughout her illustrious career, Bisset has demonstrated remarkable versatility in her roles, from the playful Miss Goodthighs in the James Bond spoof Casino Royale to a devoted mother in The Sleepy Time Gal, and even portraying Jackie Kennedy in America’s Prince: The John F. Kennedy Jr. Story. Her portrayal of Anna Karenina is still regarded as one of her standout performances.
Bisset stepped onto the big screen for the first time in her film career in 1966 with Roman Polanski’s Cul-de-Sac, but it was in 1968 that she captured widespread attention. That year, she starred in The Sweet Ride, receiving a nomination for her role. Following that, she acted alongside Frank Sinatra in Detective and Steve McQueen in Bullitt.
She continued to enthrall audiences with her performances in films such as Day for Night, The Deep, Birds of Paradise, etc. Her contributions have garnered her nominations for both Golden Globe and Emmy awards.
In 2010, Bisset received France’s prestigious Legion of Honor in recognition of her artistic achievements, and in 2023, she was honored for her lifetime contributions at the Sedona International Film Festival. Proficient in English, French, and Italian, her global allure is undeniable.
Despite sharing the screen with some of Hollywood’s most charismatic leading men, Bisset has never tied the knot. There were whispers of romance with both Sinatra and McQueen during her Bullitt days, but she felt that she and McQueen were too different. During a conversation with the Daily Mail, she reflected, “He was strikingly handsome but also intimidating. I’m British, and he was a unique American. His way of speaking was unfamiliar to me.”
Bisset has had significant relationships with Canadian actor Michael Sarrazin, ballet dancer Alexander Godunov, and actor Vincent Pérez.
However, she has embraced her independence wholeheartedly. In an interview with The Independent, she confessed, “I’ve encountered fascinating men in my life, but they’ve also posed challenges. I tend to steer clear of the easier options.” She noted that spending time with people often reveals their flaws, complicating the possibility of commitment.
Though she has kept her romantic life largely private, Bisset serves as Angelina Jolie’s godmother and gained renewed acclaim after winning a Golden Globe for her role as Lady Cremone. Her heartfelt, albeit slightly rambling, acceptance speech highlighted her humility after nearly five decades in the entertainment industry.
More recently, Bisset showcased her talents as a femme fatale in the French thriller, and starred as Rose, a once-famous actress looking to revitalize her career despite her “eccentric” reputation in Loren & Rose (2022). Director Russell Brown noted that Bisset is the complete opposite of her character, showcasing her impressive range as an actress.
A natural beauty who embraces the aging process, Bisset once shared during her Golden Globe speech, “If you want to be beautiful, forgive everyone.” She has also expressed that, despite her insecurities in her youth, she never felt driven to have cosmetic surgery, believing it often changes rather than preserves true beauty.
Jacqueline Bisset remains a beloved actress and an authentic, relatable person. Her down-to-earth and kind nature continues to motivate fans around the globe, reinforcing her position as a timeless icon.
