Yes, I did read that. I found this pretty great film essay on Wiki that is a good read and gives more insight from a feminist perspective. Now that I've read it I feel like I should rewatch the film to catch the things I clearly missed. For what it's worth, I thought the husband killed his wife. I am not sure now, lol.

Did you know that the people who play his wife & children are actually his wife & children?
I think I've seen this, a long time ago. I should give it a rewatch.

Thanks, those were good reads. Such an important work in Varda's catalog of great films. It deserves more attention, especially now in 2022.
