Florence Victoire, who is better known by her stage name Cléo Victoire (as in Cleopatra), is a singer with three hit singles to her name, and as such some renown. Two days ago, she went in for some tests for abdominal issues to see if it is cancer. She will be getting the results today at 18:30h. She is certain that it will be a terminal cancer diagnosis, her mind fixated on that outcome and what it actually means. This belief affects how she approaches the day, from her encounters with friends and acquaintances to what she observes in total strangers around her. It could be as simple as how she views the lyrics to new songs presented to her from her songwriting team, to her feelings about a conversation she overhears in a café between a couple having relationship problems, to the typical sweet nothings spoken to her from her lover, José. There are certain things that do temporarily take her mind off of waiting for the test results, but something will always bring her back to that as the issue of her day. It isn’t until just before she is ready to call the doctor that she may get a different perspective of the day and thus her life in a chance meeting with a stranger named Antoine, a French soldier at the very end of a three week leave from the Algerian War.
Plot: Agnès Varda eloquently captures Paris in the sixties with this real-time portrait of a singer set adrift in the city as she awaits test results of a biopsy. A chronicle of the minutes of one woman’s life, Cléo from 5 to 7 is a spirited mix of vivid vérité and melodrama, featuring a score by Michel Legrand and cameos by Jean-Luc Godard and Anna Karina.

The bright side of life.
It’s not like I simply love everything that is French. Au contraire! But there is no denying it that French movies from the old days often have something very special about them. Artistic, quiet, beautiful, engaging and for from boring, even though not an awful lot is always happening in it, as is also the case with this movie.It actually is its simplicity that makes this movie. Everything is very clear about this movie; we know who the main characters is and what she is going through. It’s a movie without little complications to its story and instead decides to simply follow its main character and a couple of hours of her life.
Another beautiful thing about this movie is that it’s actually about a pretty heavy and serious subject. This movie could had so easily turned into something dramatic and sentimental but it instead feels like a very positive movie. It’s a nice spin to the genre and it takes a real pleasant approach, that also helps to make this movie a very engaging one.
This is at least what I got from this movie. As often is the case with these sort of movies, you might get something totally different out of it. It’s also obviously being filled with metaphors and symbolism, without this ever becoming too distracting by the way. But because of this storytelling approach, you might interpret things different as I did, so it really still above all things is something you have to experience for yourself.
It’s a beautifully shot movie with some great camera-work at times. The movie is deliberately being kept small and simplistic, with both its story and visuals, which all was something director Agnès Varda obviously understood- and handled very well. It’s a subtly done film, that perhaps requires multiple viewing to fully get everything out of it.
Nicely done genre film with a great approach to it.

As enjoyable as it was influential
A wonderful dreamy film that seems as crisp and delightful today as it did almost fifty years ago. Corinne Marchand is perfect in the central role but then much must be down to Varda, because although appearing to be part improvised, everybody gives immaculate performances. I am not particularly keen on the short slapstick film in the middle but other than that it is near perfect. Beautifully shot sequences give us the notion of floating through Paris. Images are reflected in mirrors and the camera sweeps along and we catch snatches of various peoples conversations. The hat shop scene is a sheer delight and the reflections of the busy street scene in the window a real marvel. The music is just right but then as the composer, Michel Legrand appears in the film, I guess he was intimately involved in the making of the film. As enjoyable as it was influential.
