Simply Anna




As you may know by now, I absolutely adore Anna Karina and Marianne Faithfull. So I became particularly excited when I found that they both starred in a 1967 French TV movie called 'Anna'.

I dare you to watch the trailer and not crack a smile. 'Anna' is colourful, crazy and a musical with bizarre nouvelle vague influences and at least a touch of insanity. All in all a vintage gem. 

If you are like me, and have an interest in French cinema and the 60's, it is probably worth checking out!

Did I mention that the film was scored by Serge Gainsbourg and Marianne sings? Too good.
