See Hear's raison d'être is to discuss music-related movies. That is, films about music, musicians, or music culture. Occasionally, we focus on a musiCAL, that storywise has nought to do with music - c'est la vie.

 

Welcome to episode 69 of See Hear.

 

Bernie and Maurice are joined by Raechel Leigh Carter, who is passionate and hugely knowledgeable about French music and film culture. She brought to the table a film from 1967 directed by Pierre Koralnik called "Anna". It was co-written with French songwriting icon, Serge Gainsbourg and starred Danish / French actress, Anna Karina (her Madison dance in Band Of Outsiders looms large in cinema history).

 

The crew discusses Jane Birkin, the French New Wave, pop art, the songs of Serge Gainsbourg and what a scallywag he was, Marianne Faithfull, and a host of other things. Tune in to find out what it's all about.
