The American director, after his marriage to Melina Mercouri, linked his life with Greece and considered himself a Greek. Towards the end of his life he became an honorary Greek citizen as the highest recognition of his cultural contribution to Greece. He even said: “I was Greek before I met Melina.”
Julie Dassen fell in love with Melina Mercouri, whom she got married. Together they ever filmed the films on Sunday, Top Kapi and Phaedra.
After her death, she became President of the Melina Mercouri Foundation, which was founded to promote the creation of the new Acropolis Museum and the promotion of Greek culture.
