“In fusing Cl\u00e9o\u2019s intricate consciousness with the teeming vitality of city life and the fine grain of daily activity, Varda displays her vast artistic inspiration and expands the power of the cinema itself.”\u00a0 The New Yorker<\/i><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Cl\u00e9o is an aspiring pop singer in the politically frenetic Parisian Left-Bank milieu of the early sixties. Her anxieties about her mortality and the whirlwind of her everyday social engagements during a two-hour period are elevated into a timeless existential composition that has not dated, unlike the films of some of Agn\u00e8s Varda’s New Wave contemporaries.<\/p>\n

\n
“Coming in the midst of the new wave, Cl\u00e9o from 5 to 7<\/i> seemed to embody the prime obsession of all the young cinema movements of the sixties: to evoke the eternal present, flashing by in a sustained intensity.” The Criterion Collection<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
