As I have written in a previous post, I watched Pierrot Le Fou in a small cinema focusing on classic films when I was a postgraduate student. Although I didn’t even pay attention to who was directing the film when I watched Band a Parte, I was so moved by Pierrot Fou and looked up the director. That was my encounter with Godard.

I don’t remember which film it was, but I liked the sound of the cello, it was very impressive.
So, I never run out of my memories about him. His films are always with me and I can watch them anytime.
I would like to express my sincere condolences.
