Agnès Varda’s directorial debut has been cited by film critics as a precursor of the French New Wave, with a timeless aesthetic that has inspired filmmaking for decades. Shot oceanside on black-and-white film, La Pointe Courte follows two reunited lovers as they navigate feelings of alienation between them. Between shots of sun-drenched ports and working-class village life, Varda’s first film is emblematic of a filmmaking style paving the way toward a new visual realism. 1955, France, DCP, in French with English subtitles, 90 min.New to the Walker Cinema?
