i love you, agnès, and i'll fight jean luc godard for you.

Agnes Varda Now Going Door-To-Door Trying To Delight People

jean luc godard is a dirty rat

the amélie of documentaries?

i’m agnès sitting while JR does all the work

Friendship ended with JEAN-LUC GODARD
Now
JR
is my
best friend

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.

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.

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!

The first step of a healthy world: conversation. Varda and JR drive through France - a place, like any other, which has changed and will continue to change - and *talk* to people. They consider their values, hopes, stories, and regrets. And no matter who they are or what they stand for, the camera is open to them, and so are Varda and JR. That Faces Places could be considered naive or saccharine is misguided - it's just the initial handshake and face-to-face encounter which matters here, and the faces they capture, the art they create, is limited, specifically, to the time and perspectives they've shared. Their journey finds significance in how much they accomplish in recognition of individuals, communities, and spaces. It's how Varda sees and JR gains experience and how one of the art-pieces washes away in the surf - the acceptance, and kindness, in being.

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

I realize that Faces Places wouldn't exist without JR, but I kind of wish it could.

(2/36 of my 6 x 6 challenge, 1/6 directed by Agnès Varda)

Profundamente enamorado del cine de esta mujer.

sometimes a documentary can be the melting pot of cute and fun and that’s the case here

Characteristic show of esteem for humanity.

Existe un diálogo entre Varda y JR que no podría ser mejor. Ambos son testigos de los pueblos y sus historias, pero también de sus vidas y experiencias. El viaje no sólo es a través de Francia, sino a través de ellos mismos. En ese sentido el documental es honesto, sin personalismos ni historias forzadas. Los recursos audiovisuales acompañan, sin robar protagonismo ni intoxicar el relato.

it’s actually insane how happy this makes me

agnes eu morreria por voce

I loved every single hour, minute, and second of this delightful documentary. 

Agnes is the cutest person ever💗 

(also jean luc godard disrespecting her and their memories literally broke my heart into a million pieces and even after I see breathless I doubt I will forgive him for hurting my sweet Agnes and JR. seriously, she bought him his FAVORITE PASTRIES. Not okay godard. Not okay you 🐀)

“I don’t see you very well, but I see you.”

We never perfectly understand one another, but there is beauty in finding pieces of others and giving pieces of ourselves.

Jean-Luc, you dirty rat.

Magnifique.

Cuanto menos curioso el dúo dinámico entre Agnès con su mochila de fresitas súper adorable y JR, un fotógrafo hipster que me ha caído fatal y que además presume de lo que carece.

Lo bonito de los documentales es que brindan el protagonismo a personas que no buscan hacerse escuchar. Agnès dijo en una entrevista: "He hecho muchos documentales porque son la escuela de la modestia al estar al servicio de los sujetos que filmas".

Amo d+ mt lindinho e felizzzzz lindoh
