Varda por Agnès

a film by Agnès Varda

Another discovery thanks to Cines Babel. I had no slightest clue who Agnès Varda was and what she’s done for la Nouvelle Vague and cinema in general.

If the mission of this documentary was to make me wish to watch all her films, then it was accomplished. Of course, I need to see Cléo de 5 à 7 and Sans toit ni loi, but especially Les cent et une nuits de Simon Cinéma, her box office flop featuring Jean-Paul Belmondo, Jane Birkin, Sandrine Bonnaire, Alain Delon, Catherine Deneuve, Gérard Depardieu, Robert De Niro, Clint Eastwood, Gina Lollobrigida and Marcello Mastroianni among others — did anyone ever made a film with all these guys?!
