The Beaches of Agnès

- The Beaches of Agnes
The "Agnès" of the title would be the one and only Varda. In this lovely autobiographic portrait, the New Wave's only femme auteur relates her extraordinary life story through telltale photographs, choice film clips, and present-day captures of her whimsy and joie de vivre. Jacques "Umbrellas of Cherbourg" Demy was her husband and memories of the passed-on director tint the picture blue, but, in general, the film captures Varda's omnivorous, onward-we-go spirit as she inhales the world around her. Hardly a recluse, the octogenarian also boasts an incredibly varied rolodex, from Chris Marker and Alain Resnais to Harrison Ford and Jim Morrison.
