📽DETAILS:
 
We are celebrating International Women’s Day by screening Cléo de 5 à 7 as the first film in our classics series. This will honor the composer, Michel Legrand, who recently passed. Beforehand, there will be an optional walking tour featuring spots from the film. With a female director and female stars, this film uses a strong feminine viewpoint to explore the meanings of life and death, and deals with important questions about society’s perceptions of women.
🎥THE MOVIE:
 
Agnès Varda eloquently captures Paris in the sixties with this real-time portrait of a singer (Corinne Marchand) set adrift in the city as she awaits test results of a biopsy. A chronicle of the minutes of one woman’s life, Cléo from 5 to 7 is a spirited mix of vivid vérité and melodrama, featuring a score by Michel Legrand and cameos by Jean-Luc Godard and Anna Karina. – Plot
 
One of the Nouvelle Vague’s boldest achievements. – Empire Magazine

•THE PLAN:
 
The screening will take place at Club de l’Étoile cinema, located a short walk from the world-famous Arc de Triomphe! We will be offering an optional cinema walking tour at 5:30pm and a variety of French-inspired drinks and popcorn during our cocktail hour from 7pm and start the screening at 8.
 
•☆OPTIONAL MOVIE TOUR☆
 
On March 9, one day after International Women’s Day, Lost in Frenchlation and Ciné-Balade will team together to celebrate one of the greatest French directors, “the grandmother of New Wave”, Agnès Varda. Through the streets of Montparnasse, Denfert and Vavin, we will travel to the filming locations of her films and in particular the very feminist “Cléo from 5 to 7” which will be screened afterwards by Lost in Frenchlation. Being a local for more than 60 years, Varda likes to say that by understanding the people, we better understand the place, and by understanding the place, we can better understand the people. So let’s go to the discovery of Agnès and Cléo by viewing film clips in an open-air setting. We won’t forget to pay homage to Michel Legrand, her longtime friend, who had composed and acted for the movie of our evening. The walk starts at 5:30pm and lasts for approximately 1 hour and a half. ☞ LIMITED TICKETS: https://www.weezevent.com/lost-in-frenchlation-x-cine-balade-present-agnes-varda-movie-tour
