Bonjour Tristesse ('Hello, Sadness') is a 1958 coming-of-age drama film in CinemaScope, produced and directed by Otto Preminger from a screenplay by Arthur Laurents, based on the 1954 novel by Françoise Sagan. The film stars Deborah Kerr, David Niven, Jean Seberg, Mylène Demongeot and Geoffrey Horne, and features Juliette Gréco, Walter Chiari, Martita Hunt and Roland Culver. It was released by Columbia Pictures. This film had color and black-and-white sequences, a technique unusual for the 1950s, but widely used in silent films and early sound films.
