ON THIS DATE: In 1915, French singer and actress Edith Piaf, whose interpretation of the French ballad made her internationally famous, was born. In 1946, the Viet Minh, founded by Vietnamese nationalist Ho Chi Minh, began the First Indochina War against France. In 1966, the United Nations General Assembly endorsed the Outer Space Treaty, an international treaty binding the parties to use outer space only for peaceful purposes. In 1971, the sci-fi drama “A Clockwork Orange,” Stanley Kubrick’s adaptation of a novel by Anthony Burgess, had its world premiere; although widely acclaimed, the movie’s violent and sexually explicit scenes proved controversial, and it received an X rating when released in the U.S. In 1974, Nelson Aldrich Rockefeller was sworn in as the 41st vice president of the U.S., succeeding Gerald Ford, who had been elevated to the presidency following the resignation of Richard Nixon. In 1997, James Cameron’s “Titanic,” a drama about the doomed ocean liner starring Leonard DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, premiered; it later became one of the highest-grossing movies of all time. In 1998, the U.S. House of Representatives impeached President Bill Clinton, charging him with perjury and obstruction of justice, though Clinton was acquitted by the Senate the following month. In 2012, Park Geun-Hye became the first female to be elected president of South Korea; she was sworn into office the following year; however, she also became the country’s first democratically elected president to be removed from office when she was impeached in 2017.
