The great comedian, director, writer, actor, and illustrator—let's just say it: genius—Pierre Étaix has died at the age of 87.
Here is the Notebook's (too limited) coverage of Pierre Étaix over the years:
- David Cairns on Pierre Étaix, with some commentary from the master himself
- Adrian Curry on Pierre Étaix's illustrations for Jacques Tati and the posters for his own films
- David Cairns on The Nightmare of Méliès (1988)
