Ahoy hoy #oldtimers and welcome back to another transient episode of ATGB! This week we are taking a look at Agnes Varda's reflection on marriage and life with 1965's Le Bonheur.

Troy takes the solo approach and commentates on this incredible film about the abstractness of what it means to be complacent. We dive into the film's formalism, articulating key techniques like flash cuts and long takes, as well as personal explorations of why the film calls for discourse about the collective versus the individual. Moving on, we also highlight the French New Wave, its influence on American cinema, and much more! After all, "podding together is fine when you're in love."
