Pierre Etaix is at the Film Forum... and Jim Moore is There!

[post 296]

And I wasn't. After a few years of following the re-emergence of Pierre Etaix, my plans of seeing him live were derailed by a Friday night bike repair class. Priorities, priorities. (Yes, we were actually working on derailleurs.) Luckily, intrepid blogger / photographer / videographer Jim Moore was playing Superman to my Clark Kent and covering the event for his required-reading blog, vaudevisuals.com. Here's the video he shot.


Pierre Etaix - Excerpt from Q & A at FIlm Forum, NYC from Jim Moore on Vimeo.

The collaborator M. Etaix praises so effusively is screenwriter Jean-Claude Carrière, who also worked with Jacques Tati, Luis Buñuel, and Peter Brook.

Thanks again to Jim! You can read the whole post here.
