Jean Vigo

Fishko Files | Sep 26, 2018

French filmmaker Jean Vigo's short life contained enough drama for dozens of movies. Vigo - who died at 29 - only made a few, and by now every frame he shot and directed is considered gold. More, in this archival Fishko Files. (Produced in 2011)

At Film Forum, continuing through next Tuesday, October 2, The Complete Jean Vigo features new restorations of Vigo's films. For tickets and showtimes, visit their website.
