Poulain Tapestries

New Wave (French: La Nouvelle Vague) is a French film movement which emerged in the 1950s and 1960s. It is a form of European art cinema, and is often referred to as one of the most influential movements in the history of cinema. New Wave filmmakers were linked by their rejection of the traditional film conventions then dominating France, and by a spirit of iconoclasm. Common features of the New Wave included radical experimentation with editing, visual style, and narrative, as well as engagement with the social and political upheavals of the era.

Mash Up Amelie/Malefic

“She doesn’t relate to other people. She was always a lonely child.”

“A woman without love wilts like a flower without sun”

“Life’s funny. To a kid, time always drags. Suddenly you’re fifty. All that’s left of your childhood… fits in a rusty little box”

This is a quote from the movie Amélie. Her neighbour, Raymond Dufayel aka “The Glass Man”, informs her that she is looking for the wrong person. "It's Bretodeau, non Bedoteau". Of course if you are an Amélie fan you would already know this.

“A woman without love wilts like a flower without sun”

“It’s better to help people than to be like a gnome in the garden.”
