About
Cléo from 5 to 7

My first Varda film was Vagabond. I was expecting something similar but didn't realize that I should have taken an auteur approach. The main characters in both films are so different. Cleo, a bourgeois, pop princess is almost the antithesis of Mona, the street smart rogue. Perhaps this maps Varda's progression through different feminist concepts. I want to love this film, but I cannot help but hate Cleo.
