What is one aspect of Varda's work that stood out at the time?
Subtitles in all films
Using non-professional actors
Filming only at night
Using only black and white film
Answer
Using non-professional actors was a distinctive feature of Varda's filmmaking, particularly in her early works like "La Pointe Courte." By casting real people from the communities she depicted, Varda aimed to capture genuine emotions and experiences, blurring the lines between fiction and documentary. This innovative approach contributed to the naturalistic style that became a hallmark of the French New Wave cinema.
