i know it's on brand for me to say "i like his older stuff better" but revisiting this is incredible. Completely electric, poetry in motion. It's like witnessing demigods sounding the clarion of a new era even if you've seen it so many times.
ive already reccommended it on here but i re watched it last weekend with some friends(their first time watching it) and its just so damn funny. Im not sure if it is the best intro to french new wave but it is definitely fun and entertaining
Jean Seberg is the original cool girl! Plus, Jean-Paul Belmondo! Pretty much put the French New Wave on the map. I also love Days of Heaven (1978) though Brooke Adams and Linda Manz are more doomed than anything else. But it’s aching beautiful and will haunt you in the best way. Oh, and make you want to watch all of Terrence Malick’s movies, especially Badlands (with Sissy Spacek as another amazing cool, doomed girl!) Happy watching 🤍🩶🖤
every beautiful work of film is at the same time an expression of the artist's political critiques and their own freaky fantasies and this one's no exception, truly beautiful stuff
so much to talk about, the sunglasses, the scarf, the fresh baguette and coffee, the always lovely cafe setting. I think this is the most swag ever captured on camera I aspire to be at this level
