Produced and directed by French Left Bank giant Agnès Varda as a summation of her long and enduring career, Agnès' Beaches constitutes a free-floating essay film. It is comprised of various elements that collectively pay homage to Varda's past -- including clips from the director's features, dramatically reconstructed moments from Varda's life, and elaborate, almost baroque monuments created onscreen to symbolize specific ideas and concepts -- such as an opening scene with a number of individuals setting up mirrors of various shapes and sizes on a great beach, and an enclosure lined, from wall to wall and floor to ceiling, with film strips from Varda's only cinematic flop, the 1969 feature Les Creatures. Varda uses beaches throughout the narrative as a recurring structural motif to convey her progress from one stage of life to another, while the freedom of form on display here recalls a similar approach on display in earlier Varda works such as the 1991 Jacquot de Nantes. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

New Review For Movie Les Plages d'Agnès (The Beaches of Agnes)
The Beaches of Agnes is a work of delightful contradictions from a filmmaker who has always played by her own rules.Chris Vognar-Dallas Morning News
Filmmakers don't usually do documentaries about themselves, but Agnes Varda's The Beaches of Agnes is good enough to start a trend.
Mick LaSalle-San Francisco Chronicle
A puckish, moving and wonderfully eccentric tour through her life.
Dave Calhoun-Time Out
Varda recalls her childhood, her adulthood, her politics, and how both her films and her two children were born. She doesn't just show us, she takes us inside of it all, inside of her. It's a reverie.
Wesley Morris-Boston Globe
The warm, elfin filmmaker makes a fine companion through this vivid story of a life well lived, reminding us at the end of how we create our own safe havens within our families.
Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times
When was the last time you saw a world-renowned director converse with a cartoon cat or dress as a potato?
Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune
Inventive look at Varda's life, films, photos and art.
Michael E. Grost-Classic Film and Television
We should all be so lucky to have the chance to make movies about our own lives when we're much older; and as one of the lucky ones, Varda wastes no opportunity to provide a fun, humble, and shining entry.
Jeffrey Chen-ReelTalk Movie Reviews
The uplifting meandering piece on the likable eccentric filmmaker, Varda, is self-reflective, poignant and heartfelt.
Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews
...[Varda proceeds] diagonally and discursively through her life and work while intermingling clips from her films, archival footage, and tongue-in-cheek reenactments...
Sarah Boslaugh-Playback:stl
As evidenced in The Beaches of Agnès, Varda is too venerable to be hip -- and too wholly alive to be venerated.
Joe Williams-St. Louis Post-Dispatch
You might not be able to write a book report on Varda after seeing her movie, but you do feel like you've spent a long, leisurely afternoon with her.
Rob Thomas-Capital Times (Madison, WI)
It's a unique, funny recollection of a life, through memories and moments.
Jeffrey M. Anderson-Combustible Celluloid
A deftly assembled, wry and touching self-portrait of Agnès Varda as both a filmmaker and an endearing, indomitable spirit.
Jon Fortgang-Film4
A witty and engaging cine-autobiography.
Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]
A touching, highly whimsical journey down memory lane.
Philip French-Observer [UK]
Although you will get more out of this self-portrait if you're a film-lover, it can be enjoyed simply for its touching, eloquent reflections on life in general.
Edward Porter-Times [UK]
It's impossible not to open your heart to this film.
Sophie Mayer-Little White Lies
Poignant and illuminating, it's also suffused with Varda's playful, eccentric spirit.
Tom Dawson-Total Film
Memory is a recurrent theme in Varda's work, and with this film she serves her own with warmth and skill.
Justin Postlethwaite-Filmstar Magazine
A loose-leaf diary in which the pages are shuffled by instinct, wit and surreal art.
Nigel Andrews-Financial Times
There's not much discipline and it's way too long, but in common with her best work, it has a dreamy sort of charm.
Anthony Quinn-Independent
Charming and idiosyncratic, The Beaches Of Agnès has a strong emotional pull for anyone familiar with Varda's career as a film-maker, photographer, artist and committed feminist.
Allan Hunter-Daily Express
