Agnès Varda eloquently captures Paris in the sixties with this real-time portrait of a singer set adrift in the city as she awaits test results of a biopsy. A chronicle of the minutes of one woman’s life, Cléo from 5 to 7 is a spirited mix of vivid vérité and melodrama, featuring a score by Michel Legrand and cameos by Jean-Luc Godard and Anna Karina.

If you like movies such as *La Strada*, *Ikiru*, *The Red Shoes*, *Paisan*, *How Green Was My Valley*, *The Grapes of Wrath*, *Carrie*, and *Fitzcarraldo*, then you will appreciate this film. A lot happens in this movie, but the story unfolds slowly. It's very unique in a good way, incorporating all the necessary elements, such as different perspectives, themes, and symbolism. Initially, the narrative feels strange and aimless, but everything comes together in the end. The ending feels like an anticlimax because the entire movie is a climax. I understand it won't resonate with everyone. I could explain more about what's so unique about the movie and detail all its themes and perspectives, but it's better to go in without knowing anything about it. I am rating it a 9, which corresponds to top 1000 list quality, or a 10, which corresponds to top 100 list quality. p.s. You will need to watch the entire movie to understand why it feels slow and disjointed at first. This pacing is an important part of the narrative and couldn't have been done any other way, or the movie wouldn't have achieved its perfection.

Wonderful, just wonderful. So full of life for a film about death. I loved the dialogues and the motifs throughout. The opening is so strong. And just such magnificent shots, camera movements and framings. I love the changes in subjective perspective. A symphony of film.

The original title of the film is Cléo de 5 à 7.

Just didn’t connect with this one. Wonderful idea, but the main character felt vapid and uninteresting to me. What I did like was seeing (what I assume was) the inspiration for the La La Land song, which is a movie I enjoyed much more.

When I think of interesting filmmakers, the world over, whose movies are always a pleasure to watch, I thank God every day for Agnès Varda. I had her '4 Films by' Criterion boxed set, seemingly forever, left unwatched, and I don't really know why. Perhaps I felt her films wouldn't excite me enough, More
