Biography

Jacques Demy, a renowned French filmmaker, was born on June 5, 1931, and tragically passed away on October 27, 1990. Emerging in the aftermath of the French New Wave, a cinematic movement that revolutionized filmmaking in the 1950s and 1960s, Demy's work was characterized by its lavish visual style, which drew inspiration from a diverse range of sources, including the grandeur of Hollywood musicals, the whimsy of fairy tales, the improvisational spirit of jazz, and the dramatic flair of opera.
