Cleo From 5-7

Sunday 13th February 1:30 PM - Theatre By The Lake
Cleo From 5-7
Director:Agnès Varda
Cert:TBC Year: 1962 Length:90mins
Country:France Language:French
Glamorous Cléo survives by pretending to be someone she's not: secretly she's called Florence, and this isn't even her own hair. As she waits – in real-time – for the results of a test that might say 'cancer', something is liberated inside her. Varda's style is all jump cuts and jagged realism then surprising formalism, with a brilliant Michel Legrand soundtrack holding it all together. No wonder Godard appears in a cameo.

Critics

“Race to see Agnès Varda's exquisite 1962 New Wave masterpiece, about an hour and a half in the life of a gorgeous, possibly dying chanteuse.”

Tim Robey, Daily Telegraph
