But for directors such as Luis Bunuel? How did she become famous beyond
the art house crowd?
I can answer my own question by delving into newspapers.com.
The answer is the American publicity machine, via nationally syndicated

Bardot as the new cinema sex symbol. This was in connection with the
movie "Benjamin."
