AMG Review :
   Cleo From 5 to 7 (Cleo de cinq a sept), per its title,
concentrates on two hours in the life of a woman. Those
hours are desperate ones, in that Cleo, a pop singer,
awaits the results of her tests for cancer. Director
Agnes Varda stages the film in "real" rather than
subjective time, its various episodes divided into
chapters, using significant Tarot cards. During the
allotted time, Cleo visits her friends, tries to
sing her worries away, spends money, and cries.
   Writer/director Agnes Varda's Cléo de 5 α 7
is one of the more unassuming works in the
French New Wave -- it has neither the historical
gravity of, say, Alain Resnais's Hiroshima Mon
Amour nor the shock value of Jean-Luc Godard's
A Bout de Souffle -- but in its own quiet way,
it offers offers a meticulous record of one
woman's capacity to observe, dream, and feel.

In near real-time, we follow pop singer Cléo
(Corrine Marchand) as she waits for her doctor's
verdict on a cancer test; though the subject
matter is heart-rending, Varda's athletic
direction prevents the film from becoming
a cloying weepie. In true New Wave fashion,
she incorporates any technique that suits
her needs: a meandering soundtrack that
picks up ancillary characters' conversations;
subjective point-of-view shots; titles that
separate the film into "chapters"; and
documentary-style snatches of street life.

Instead of cluttering the film, Varda's
flourishes have a breezy, existential
quality that underscores Cléo's impending
news without trivializing her predicament.
Marchand aids the director immensely; her
intuitive performance suggests a brainier
Marilyn Monroe afflicted with spiritual malaise.
