Agnes Varda and Jacques Demy made for an inspirational couple to those who love film.
90 years; and what a creatively rich life she had.
May she rest in peace.

One of the most incredible motion picture careers ever. The most recent documentary she directed (an autobiography!) came out this year. Think about that.

The Gleaners and I; The beaches of agnes; Faces/Places: 3 great films of her later years. They all moved me to tears for the great humanism displayed in them. And yes, a favorite, Jacquot de Nantes, a love letter to her husband. Another film that always struck a chord with me: Le bonheur.
Godard, you should have been like Varda: an artist and a great human being! Both attributes can go hand in hand.
RIP
