Signoret and Montand, Monroe and Miller: Two couples in Hollywood

Overview

In January 1960, Yves Montand and Simone Signoret, one of the most famous star couples of the day, were on tour in the United States. Yves Montand had just triumphed on the country's biggest stages. Simone Signoret, who had distinguished herself in "Room at the Top", was about to win an Oscar. It was then that they met Arthur Miller, a writer and playwright but above all, at the time, the husband of Marilyn Monroe, a world star at the height of her fame and beauty. Yves Montand and Marilyn Monroe fell in love and the actress did everything she could to make a film with the Frenchman. This is how they met on the set of the film "Let's Make Love".
