Ah thanks honey! I'm writing them all down and i'll hit up the video store!

It's funny but i've looked at images of Brigitte Bardot and Catherine Deneuve for years yet never seen a single film of theirs. Shameful!
Yves Montand i've only seen in Let's Make Love :)

Well tell Julien thank you very much! I have my eye on two of them. But I always credit the photog if it's a straight forward study, so his name will be in the title!

P.S Is Le Sauvage the film that inspired THIS shoot??

Those stills look very similar and I know Abbey Lee is channelling Bardot.

Beautiful stills.....

Julianna said...

Best post ever! My favorite Godard film would have to either be Une Femme Est Une Femme or Breathless.

Julianna said...

Oh and by the way..have you seen "Dreamers" yet? It's an older film so you might have, but if you haven't you need to check it out...there are a ton of Godard clips and references used in it!

I always fall in love with french movies and i've been looking for a french classic for so long. I only seen Godard's.
