Director
Agnès Varda
Certificate
PG
Running Time
90 mins

Revival of Agnès Varda’s best-known film, which has dated a little better than many supposed classics of the nouvelle vague. Corinne Marchand plays a pampered nightclub singer who spends a couple of hours on the streets of ‘60s Paris as she awaits the results of a biopsy that will tell here whether she’ll live or die. Watch out for Agnes’s chums, including Jean-Luc Godard, in the silent comedy she watches.

It’s back on screen in the Gleaning Truths: Agnès Varda season of digital restorations of her movies.
