It could be a trap,\u0022 whispers Jane Birkin shyly into Agn\u00e8s Varda\u0027s ear at the start of JANE B. PAR AGNES V. The director of CLEO FROM 5 TO 7 and VAGABOND once again paints a portrait of a woman, this time in a marvelously Expressionistic way. \u0022It\u0027s like an imaginary bio-pic,\u0022 says Varda. Jane, of course, is the famed singer (\u0022Je t\u0027aime ... Moi non plus\u0022), actress (BLOW UP), fashion icon (the Hermes Birkin bag) and longtime muse to Serge Gainsbourg. As Varda implies, JANE B. PAR AGN\u00c8S V. abandons the traditional bio-pic format, favoring instead a freewheeling mix of gorgeous and unexpected fantasy sequences. In each, Jane inhabits a new character, playing a cat \u0026 mouse game with Varda as they explore the role of the Muse and the Artist, all the while showcasing the multifaceted nature of Birkin\u0027s talent. \u0022I\u0027d like to be filmed as if I were transparent, anonymous, like everyone else,\u0022 says Birkin. But her wish to be a \u0022famous nobody\u0022 is impossible to achieve; Birkin is simply too magnificent, too mesmerizing. Here, Varda\u0027s signature mix of aesthetic innovation and generosity of emotion results in a surreal and captivating essay on Art, Fame, Love, Children and Staircases. For its first-ever U.S. theatrical release the film has been newly-restored from the original 35mm camera negative, overseen by director Varda herself.","wins":0,"nominations":null,"casts":[{"name":"Jane Birkin","code":"nm0000945","characters":"Calamity Jane"},{"name":"Jean-Pierre L\u00e9aud","code":"nm0529543","characters":"L\u0027amoureux col\u00e9rique"},{"name":"Philippe L\u00e9otard","code":"nm0529645","characters":"Le peintre"},{"name":"Farid Chopel","code":"nm0159129","characters":"Le colonial"},{"name":"Alain Souchon","code":"nm0815713","characters":"Le lecteur de Verlaine"},{"name":"Serge Gainsbourg","code":"nm0006092","characters":"Serge Gainsbourg"},{"name":"Laura Betti","code":"nm0079341","characters":"Lardy"},{"name":"Monique Godard","code":"nm1177341","characters":"La sous-ma\u00eetresse"},{"name":"Ian Marshall","code":"nm0550918","characters":"L\u0027huissier"},{"name":"Les enfants Tooke","code":"nm1176741","characters":"Les pauvres de Dickens"},{"name":"Charlotte Gainsbourg","code":"nm0001250","characters":"La fille de J."},{"name":"Mathieu Demy","code":"nm0218843","characters":"Le fils de A."},{"name":"James Millard","code":"nm1102026","characters":"Tarzan"},{"name":"Pascale Torsat","code":"nm1176746","characters":"Le mod\u00e8le du Titien"},{"name":"Henri Piednoir","code":"nm1176339","characters":"Le boulanger"},{"name":"Andr\u00e9 Cagnard","code":"nm0128554","characters":"Andr\u00e9 Cagnard et ses cascadeurs"},{"name":"Agn\u00e8s Varda","code":"nm0889513","characters":"Agn\u00e8s Varda"}],"budget":null,"lifetimeGross":null,"openingWeekendGross":null,"worldwideGross":{"amount":10825,"currency":"USD"},"keywords":[{"text":"reference to famous painting"},{"text":"reference to salvador dali"},{"text":"reference to prince philip"},{"text":"reference to serge gainsbourg"},{"text":"reference to charlotte gainsbourg"}],"production":[{"id":"co0017285","text":"Cin\u00e9-tamaris"},{"id":"co0072659","text":"La Sept Cin\u00e9ma"}],"prestigiousAwardSummary":null,"moreLikeThisTitles":[{"code":"tt0093371","title":"Kung-Fu Master!"},{"code":"tt0102141","title":"Jacquot of Nantes"},{"code":"tt0071384","title":"Daguerreotypes"},{"code":"tt0082275","title":"Documenteur"},{"code":"tt0179389","title":"Uncle Yanco"},{"code":"tt0081204","title":"Mur murs"},{"code":"tt1129435","title":"The Beaches of Agn\u00e8s"},{"code":"tt0057466","title":"Salut les Cubains"},{"code":"tt0064591","title":"Lions Love (... and Lies)"},{"code":"tt0060263","title":"The Creatures"},{"code":"tt0106696","title":"The Young Girls Turn 25"},{"code":"tt0209942","title":"Black Panthers"}]}
