    I too have nothing but respect and admiration for Jean Seberg, a great talent, caring, perceptive, innocent in some ways, but more advanced in recognition of social and human issues that our society was failing to deal with in her time. The FBI obviously resented this, and hounded her mercilessly, and tragically, leading to a great loss for all of us.

    So happy to know Jean is celebrated every year! This is well done! Thank you! My husband is Jean's second cousin! I grew up outside of Marshalltown and occasionally would go into Sebergs pharmacy. I remember Ed being very tall and helpful! It's so tragic how her life ended. I do NOT believe she committed suicide! I remember Ed in an interview saying he would not hang the American flag outside his house. She was so beautiful and photogenic! I also have heard many times.....Jean was beautiful on the "inside" where it counts! I wish i could have met her. God bless all these wonderful people who work so diligently to keep her legacy alive! 💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛

    Family, friends, associates, supporters and fans: Thanks for reclaiming your icon. Ms. Seberg was a paragon, an icon, an iconoclast. Yet, Ms. Seberg should not have been made into an anachronism and pariah by the then, corrupt FBI. I saw the movie "Seberg," yesterday. I am grateful to those who pushed this movie to fruition. I am now more fully aware. And, will hold Ms. Seberg in the highest esteem, in perpetuity.

    ​@@cucubanana4226 To clarify her personnal story : She had a pretty normal romantic and sexual life even after the end of her wedding with Romain Gary as it can be read in her biography by David Richards "Played out The Jean Seberg Story". A lot of the affairs with men that were put on her were mostly smears and unfounded rumours like in the case of Warren Beatty and probably also with the writer Carlos Fuentes (read his essay about her : "Diana the Goddess who hunts alone" and his account is very suspicious, moreover when no one either on the set of the movie where they had their so called affair nor anywhere else in the town of Santiago remembered such relationship taking place between them. Looks more like the ranting book of a turned down pseudo Don Juan of the time). She did had an affair first with Clint Eastwood on the set of "Paint your wagon" in 1968, but her wedding with Romain Gary was seriously on the downside way by then, besides, Clint had promised her he would marry her as soon as both of them would engage divorce with their previous partners. She did, Clint didn't and ghosted her away once the shooting of the movie was done (what a soab :/). At the end of 1968 (just after her disappointment with Clint) she was involved with one, probably two men from the Black Power movement but once again it was on her usual background of investing herself a lot in social justice (giving a lot of her money, time and personal involvement to the cause as her big heart had told her to do so and without any publicity as some others hollywood stars had done). She had a real crush on the first guy Hakim Jamal, but turned her back on him as soon as she realised he was mostly involved into his own legend and less into the cause(their affair lasted a few month, it was not a "fuck me because i fantasize black guys" tale as the FBI had tried to coin her with.) Then she had a brief relationship with a Mexican student revolutionary while on the set of "Macho Callahan" at the very start of 1970(on the same supposed period Fuentes told he was romantically involved with her, which is again in my opinion a load of bs), a man with whom she felt pregnant, happily telling it by phone to two of her Black Panthers friends Ellen Brown and Masai Hewitt. FBI caught the phone call and decided to smear her by hinting newspapers that her baby was the one of a very important figure of the Black Panthers(Masai Hewitt)and not from her still husband by then Roman Gary (once again don't forget her divorce had been filled in july of 1968 while one the set of "Paint your wagon" but would not be effective before september of 1970). The bureau saw her as a threat because she had a true revolutionary mind, hoping in a better world for everyone and giving a lot of money to the causes (Black power movement but also native Ameridians and so on...). When the lies were released in the news in august of 1970 she freaked out badly and had an early birthing(note that she came from a very religious lutherian family whom she loved deeply). She was saved just in time but her baby, a daughter called Nina, didn't survive, leading her to what was the start of her downfall in the following years. She nevertheless managed to hold onto herself a bit between several internment to desintoxication centers and mental institutions in France and Switzerland, even remarying herself with Dennis Berry. But she was never able to come back to her true self and circa 1975-76 the downward spiral was engaged before meeting a con artist named Ahmed Hasni (19 years old, told her he was 29 !)who took advantage of her, beating her and stealing her money before that dreadful night of 29-30 august 1979. She was probably assassinated or at least assisted in committing suicide, even if she had plans to make a new film that may have put her career back on tracks. Nevertheless she had been broken on the inside, probably guilting herself to death for her daughter tragic fate and never recovered from it hence her road to total self destruction by the half of the 70's. She was not the whore some might have thought she was, she was faithfull with Romain Gary for more than 8 years because she loved him and she needed to love and admire to engage herself in a relationship with a man. She was definitly not the casting couch type as many other wanabee movie stars were.(Not a single account on her about an affair with a casting director with the exception of her then husband, Romain Gary). She always chose her partners, not the other way around. To my opinion and the opinion of those who took real interest in her "true" path of life, and there are enough serious accounts on it to do so, she was a true angel, very bright : spoke english, french and spanish fluently, took a strong interest as an autodidact in arts, culture, litterature, very generous, (she litteraly squandered her small fortune for others, waiting for nothing in return)and very sensitive, probably too much for this shitty world. Given her true nature, she was born 10 to 20 years too early and i personally hate with all my guts all the soa that had a say or finger in her demise. But she wouldn't want us to do so, so i'm just telling her now that a lot of people, including myself loved and still love her deeply and that i do hope she finally found the peace and happiness she deserved on the other plans of life and consciousness. Sorry if i was long but again she deserved to have her name rehabilitated.

    Jean seberg the only actress I want to meet. I don’t see anything evil or proud in her . She has never done anything wrong in his life . Of course she made wrong choices and was manipulated but she wanted a world without racism and peacefully, in her life she met the wrong men and colleagues who unfortunately never defend her . Many will say that she was a sjw but I say no,too intelligent and too good,perhaps the only negative thing was that she was a bit deluded into believing in some things. If and I say if we would have had the chance to save her we certainly would have done it. Rip Rest In Peace Jean now no one will hurt you again and no one dares to throw mud on this actress .

    The Black Panthers used her so badly they saw a cash cow and unfortunately due to her kind heart those people she tried to help and J. Edgar Hoover destroyed her. Her intentions were pure. "From the Journals of Jean Seberg" is a very sad but very moving film. Rest in Peace Jean no one can hurt you now. Jean did not suffer the childhood sexual abuse that Edie did nor the psychological abuse and was not anorexic. Psychiatry was still very much in the dark ages when she was being treated. She was perhaps bi-polar and may have been alcoholic when she was in her 30s.

She was beautiful and her fate leaves me and many others devastated. I just hope she's now in a better place than in this fucking insanely bad world, but knowing the obviously pure soul that she is i wouldn't be surprised if she decided to come back in another skin to try to go on healing this place one way or another.

    Thx. for your thoughts. This video was meant to remember her on the occasion of her 80th Birthday- with the intentional focus on demonstrating ways she is still, well remembered. We worked hard to include those who actually knew, and loved her. If, understandably, wanting to see more of Jean speak for and of herself, thankfully, there are multiple other videos available where she does just that.
