Agnes Varda Now Going Door-To-Door Trying To Delight People
Friendship ended with JEAN-LUC GODARD
Now
JR
is my
best friend
Agnès Varda may not see as well as she used to, but her creative vision has never been clearer. If the magnificently moving, funny, life-affirming, and altogether wonderful “Faces Places” (or, in its original language, the much smoother “Visages Villages”) is to be the 88-year-old Belgian auteur’s last film, it will be because of her failing eyesight or the inexplicable difficulty she’s had with funding her work, and not because she’s run out of things to say or novel ways to say them.
If this is to be her last film, then it will be one of cinema’s most extraordinary sendoffs, as poignant and perfect a swan song as Hayao Miyazaki’s “The Wind Rises” or Abbas Kiarostami’s “Like Someone in…
Agnès Varda: i’m just a tiny lady with a lot of love in my heart for everyone!!!! Not you godard you can go choke.
the amélie of documentaries?
Agnés sweetie I'm so sorry I'm so sorry that an ugly ass bitch like Godard would even do that to you, oh my god
The duo we never knew we needed!
I need there to be a TV series wherein Agnès Varda and JR wander the world in search of the mysterious JLG. At the end of every episode, he leaves a cryptic, taunting clue. Like The Fugitive, but with art and sunglasses.
fuck godard, vive la varda!
where does he live I will pull up on that mf im heated
Cute and endearing, but I think the parts that are obviously over-dramatized really didn’t work for me. And once you get the crux of what this tour is going to be, it feels like you’re fighting against the urge to find it a liiiiiiiil tedious. But remember, I also called it cute and endearing!
It's really nice to tear up from nothing but the utmost pleasantness for a change.
A film that feels like a random, small gesture of kindness that you'd casually witness on the street and give no particular thought about, but later fondly reminisce as the organic demonstration of unassuming righteousness that everyone kind of involuntarily craves to keep going. Just ridiculously delightful and life-affirming without remotely feeling like it's too hard, or in fact, spectacularly sympathetic exactly because of it. Confirms what I always knew at heart, that Godard's shittiness knows no bounds, and that I desperately need to get into Agnès Varda's filmography. I'll be thinking of that moment where a factory worker magnificently nonchalantly defines the whole concept of art in a simple rhetorical question and wishes everyone a nice day for a long time.
