miliosr Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Composer Michel Legrand has died just shy of his 87th birthday. His impressive list of credits: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michel_Legrand#Film_scores My favorite song of his (Legrand wrote the music and Marilyn and Alan Bergman wrote the words): Link to comment
Quiggin Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Two clips from Agnes Varda's Cleo from 5 to 7, 1961. Cleo and Demy's Lola were big art house hits in the US for Legrand, well before Cherbourg and Man and a Woman (which was then considered less good). Even Pauline Kael was a fan of Cleo.
