April. Left Bank Cinema. From the Harvard Film Archive:

“In the early 1960s, critic and curator Richard Roud, faced with the “luxuriant flowering” of so many new talents under the wide umbrella of the French New Wave, attempted to draw a distinction between the directors allied with the influential journal Cahiers du cinéma (including Claude Chabrol, François Truffaut, and Jean-Luc Godard) and what he dubbed the “Left Bank” group. This latter rubric embraced a loose association of makers that consisted principally of the directors Chris Marker, Alain Resnais, and Agnès Varda. The classification, which Roud admitted was a bit of a conceit, had been enacted for the simple fact that the Left Bank area of Paris was home to each of these directors. But Roud associated this neighborhood with a “state of mind” as well—one that in his estimation was synonymous with “a fondness for a kind of Bohemian life and an impatience with the conformity of the Right Bank, a high degree of involvement in literature and the plastic arts, and a consequent interest in experimental filmmaking.” He recognized as well that this community, long a center of the avant-garde, was also “traditionally frequented by the political Left.”

Here we present films by Chris Marker, Alain Resnais and Agnès Varda alongside filmmakers and co-writers including Jacques Demy, Alaine Robbe-Grillet, Marguerite Duras, and William Klein.

Also some earlier films of Andrei Tarkovsky, more Cinema From The Watchlist and Cliterion and the newly restored Maiku Hama Trilogy.
