#RIP Claude Brasseur
From very early in his career, his 1957 Studio Harcourt portrait. A necessity for a young actor.

Jean-Luc Godard on the set of his 1964 film Bande à Part, with his stars Sami Frey & Claude Brasseur (#RIP), masked, but not socially distancing.
The still photographer on the set was Marilou Parolini.
Stay well Jean-Luc & Sami!
A beautiful, undated portrait of Claude Brasseur by Jerome de Perlinghi. Mid-1990s perhaps?
What a face! Another of the actors from a golden age, gone. #RIP

Watched Kar-Wai Wong's In The Mood For Love for the first time @criterionchannl. What a masterpiece!
Blu-ray cover by Lucien S. Y. Yang
Watching Kar-Wai Wong's In The Mood For Love, we thought of Kubrick (2001, Eyes Wide Shut), Neil Jordan's The End of the Affair, Scorsese's The Age of Innocence, David Lean's Brief Encounter, Godard, Truffaut, Antonioni. I felt like I was in the middle of a Henry James novel.
The French poster for the 20th anniversary restoration of Kar-Wai Wong's In The Mood For Love by @studiotstella is perfection.
