Romy Schneider died in Paris on May 29, 1982 - the most adored European actress of her generation. Her life began as a Viennese fairytale in the 1950s with Sissi, and ended in tragedy nearly thirty years later. What unfolded in between was one of cinema's most dazzling, heartbreaking journeys. Crowned a screen princess before she turned fifteen, Romy sparked a frenzy not seen since Shirley Temple. A move to France and a fateful meeting with Alain Delon launched her second act - bold, complex, unforgettable. She worked with giants: Orson Welles, Otto Preminger, Joseph Losey. But it was with European auteurs - Claude Sautet, Andrej Zulawski, Jacques Rouffio - that she found her soul. Her private life mirrored her roles: intense, fragile, often tragic. The death of her son shattered her. Yet through it all, she remained incandescent - a woman who gave everything to the screen and left behind a legacy of raw, luminous truth. In this first English-language biography, Marlon Thayne draws from extensive archives to reveal the full scope of Schneider's sublime and tragic destiny. From her breakout in German and French cinema to her Hollywood turns in The Cardinal, Good Neighbor Sam, and What's New Pussycat?, Schneider's career spanned continents and genres, marked always by emotional depth and magnetic presence. More than a chronicle of a career, this is the story of a woman who lived with intensity, loved with abandon, and left behind a legacy that still burns bright.
