How unusual to see a woman’s perspective on love presented so plainly as Varda does in La Pointe Courte.

While the star auteurs of the nouvelle vague were almost entirely a male roster, Varda arguably commenced the entire movement with 1955’s La Pointe Courte...

The married couple’s conversation in La Pointe Courte is a spellbinding predecessor to Richard Linklater’s Before Trilogy’ and further proof that no great film needs ‘action’ to be great.

The sublime depiction of a marriage on the rocks is skilfully presented in an innovative way against the daily life of the small Mediterranean fishing village.
