Cléo
Here is a really rough sketch from one of my very favorite French New Wave films, “Cléo from 5 to 7,” by the ‘Grandmother’ of New Wave, Agnes Varda.
I was watching this film again and thinking how much it’s like a blog, because it follows two hours of the life of a young woman.
This entry marks the return of “Friday Favorite Films,” a day late and a week early.
Frisky Jones wanted everyone to know that he is still here in spirit and loves these films as well, but will not be making his debut until much later.
Ooh, i’ve not seen this film… I’ll add it to my ‘must see, must find’ list. I loved her other films so I’m sure to love this one.
Hooray for the return of Friday Favourite Films… can I join in to, one of these days?
take care, grache
You are in for a treat! I hope you get to watch it soon:) I would love it if you would join in. Please do, it would be so much fun.
Take care, dear Gracia.
P.S. I forgot to tell you that the bluebirds are so lush and fab. I love them!
i saw this film for the first time earlier this year and loved it…all of the superstitions!
Shari,
I’m so happy that you saw it, too. Isn’t it the best film? I love her bedroom, it’s so grand. You’re right about all those superstitions I didn’t think of them before, but they carry throughout the whole film.
