The forgotten Nouvelle Vague director

Rouge Allure shoot, copyright Chanel 
We’ve run an article on the Lucire website about a Chanel campaign directed by Bettina Rheims, in the spirit of Jean-Luc Godard’s Le Mépris, a Nouvelle Vague (New Wave) film from 1963 starring Brigitte Bardot. I still rank Pierre de Terre as the best of the genre, with his Lavabo en Face, Le Jambon Triste and the classic Ne Touchez Pas Le Poof. (For those who do not know, M. de Terre was a fictional French avant-garde director played by Benny Hill and yes, this entry was a pisstake.)

‘I think they’re wonderful. They have so much courage! Here they are, hurling through space on a molten rock at 67,000 miles an hour, and the only thing that keeps them in their shoes is their misplaced faith in gravity.’—John Lithgow as Prof Dick Solomon, in Third Rock from the Sun
