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. Tickets available now at sunscinema.com
