The Josephine Baker Story (1991)
Née à St. Louis, Missouri, Joséphine Baker est née pauvre, mais elle a atteint la célébrité et la fortune grâce à ses performances érotiques et exotiques. Débutant sur le circuit américain de vaudeville, le succès amène Joséphine à Paris où sa danse semi-nue fait sensation sur la scène internationale. Grâce à ses mariages avec un pseudo-compteur et chef d'orchestre italien, à son lien avec l'officier de l'armée Sydney Williams, la vie de Joséphine est une montagne russe d'amour et de rejet de ses amants et de son pays. Mais à moitié nue, ou de la tête aux pieds avec des paillettes, en tenue de combat ou en haillons, sa beauté et son ambition ont fait en sorte que l'on se souviendra toujours de Josephine Baker comme la première, et peut-être la plus aimée, des véritables stars internationales.
