Description 
CinémaTuesdays in February: Carte Blanche to Agnès b. FIAF is thrilled to invite French fashion designer Agnès b. to curate a month-long series of films that have most influenced her life and career as a designer, photographer, and, more recently, as a fashion film producer and director. Cinema plays an important role in Agnès b.’s world. Her love of black and white films and the casual elegance of New Wave cinema are reflected in the straight lines of her classic designs and fashion films, which all pay homage to the cinematic art form. Pierrot le Fou Tuesday, February 21, 2012 at 7:30pm Jean-Luc Godard, 1965. Color. 110 min. With Jean- Paul Belmondo, Anna Karina, Graziella Galvani In French with English subtitles Ferdinand, a bored bourgeois husband, takes up with the babysitter in a burst of rebellion, tearing down his identity. Pierrot le fou captures Godard at a crossroads—it’s a boundary-pushing marriage of the history of cinema and a struggle to explore new forms of storytelling. Review ’Whimsical and melancholic, playful and heavy as a heart swollen with emotion.’—The New York Times
