Resumo

This essay reminisces about the author’s encounters with Betty Blue at three different stages in his life. It reflects on stylistic elements of the film (as exemplar of Jean-Jacques Beineix’s Cinéma du look) as well as its portrayal of gender, sexuality, artistic aspiration and the concept of freedom. The essay also ruminates on the concept of having favourites and the synchronicity required to make a magical movie.
