LE BEC-HELLOUIN

Entre Rouen et Lisieux, dans un paysage verdoyant de bocages et de pommiers, Le "Bec-Hellouin" est un village typique de Normandie aux maisons à pans de bois et balcons fleuris.

 

Haut-lieu culturel et religieux des siècles durant, le Bec Hellouin fait aujourd'hui partie des grands symboles identitaires de Normandie.

 

Le petit village typique aux maisons à pan de bois élégamment fleuries est un pur produit de la volonté politique et spirituelle. Sur les bords de la Risle, sans l'Abbaye "Notre-Dame du Bec", le village ne serait pas né.

C'est dans la première moitié du XIème siècle, qu'un chevalier nommé Herluin (ou Hellouin selon les versions) fonde cette abbaye qui devient très vite un centre important à l'échelle même de la chrétienté.

Les moines avaient besoin de main d’œuvre et c'est ainsi que le petit village a poussé autour du site. Jamais, jusqu'à la révolution, le village du Bec n'a pu vivre à un autre rythme que celui des cloches de son abbaye.

C'est avec les événements de 1789, qu'il est devenu un simple petit bourg paisible au pied d'un monument privé de sa fonction originelle.

"Le Bec" (ruisseau en normand) profite d'une situation exceptionnelle et la sérénité des lieux dépasse largement le cadre religieux.

C'est un véritable petit havre de paix. Hormis l'abbaye, l'on peut visiter l'église "Saint-André" où reposait le bienheureux fondateur Hellouin.

De l'autre côté du village, le monastère "Sainte-Françoise" Romaine accueille encore 26 bénédictines.

 

THE BEC-HELLOUIN

Between Rouen and Lisieux, in a green landscape of scrap-metals and apple trees, the “LE BEC-Hellouin” is a typical village of Normandy at the houses with sides of wood and flowered balconies.

 

cultural High-place and monk of the centuries during, the Bec-Hellouin is today part of the great identity symbols of Normandy.

 

The typical small village at the elegantly flowered half-timbered houses is pure produced political will and spiritual. On the edges of Risle, without the Abbey “Notre-Dame of LE BEC”, the village would not have been born.

It is in first half of the 11th century, that a knight named Herluin (or Hellouin according to the versions) founds this abbey which very quickly becomes an important center on the scale even of Christendom.

The monks needed labour and thus the small village pushed around the site. Never, until the revolution, the village of the Nozzle could live at another rhythm only that of the bells of its abbey.

It is with the events of 1789, que le Bec-Hellouin" became a simple small peaceful borough at the bottom of a private monument of its original function.

“LE BEC” (brook into Norman) benefits from an exceptional situation and the serenity of the places largely exceeds the religious framework.

It is a true small haven of peace. Except the abbey, one can visit the church “Saint-Andrew” where the happy Hellouin founder rested.

On the other side of the village, the monastery Roman “Holy-Francoise” accommodates 26 more bénédictines.

Jean-Luc Godard (1930) is a French film director and screenwriter. He is one of the most important members of the Nouvelle Vague (New Wave). Godard first received global acclaim for his feature À bout de souffle/Breathless (1959), helping to establish the New Wave movement. Godard's films have inspired many directors including Martin Scorsese, Quentin Tarantino, Robert Altman, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, and Wong Kar-wai. He has been married twice, to actresses Anna Karina and Anne Wiazemsky, both of whom starred in several of his films.

 

Jean-Luc Godard was born in Paris in 1930. His father was a doctor who owned a private clinic, and his mother came from a preeminent family of Swiss bankers. The family returned to Switzerland during World War II. In 1949 he started studying ethnology at the Sorbonne. During this period he got to know François Truffaut, Jacques Rivette and Éric Rohmer. In 1950 he started a film newspaper 'Gazette du cinéma' with Rivette and Rohmer and collaborated on their films. In January 1952 he started writing for the film magazine 'Les cahiers du cinéma', which had been founded the year before by André Bazin. In 1953 he worked as a construction worker at a dam in Switzerland. With the money he earned, he made his first film, Opération Béton/Operation Concrete, a short documentary film about the construction of the dam. In 1956 he returned to France and resumed his work at Cahiers. During that time he made several short comedies and tributes to Mack Sennett and Jean Cocteau. In 1959 he directed his first feature film, À bout de souffle/Breathless (1960), based on a screenplay by François Truffaut. This film played a key role in the birth of the Nouvelle Vague. It broke with many then prevailing conventions, with its references and influences from the American (gangster) film, the low budget, and the rough editing. Jean-Paul Belmondo and Jean Seberg starred and the film was a huge success with audiences and critics. Godard won the Silver Bear for this film at the Berlin Film Festival 1960. Jean Seberg was nominated for a BAFTA Award. That year Godard also married Anna Karina, who would appear in many of his films. In 1964 they formed a production company, Anouchka Films. They divorced in 1965.

 

In 1961 Jean-Luc Godard made his first colour film, the comedy Une femme est une femme/A Woman Is a Woman (1961) starring Anna Karina, Jean-Claude Brialy, and Jean-Paul Belmondo. It is a tribute to American musical comedy, filmed in cinemascope. Godard proved to be very productive during those years. His first flop, the war film Les Carabiniers/The Carabineers (1963), was a tribute to Jean Vigo. That year he also made one of his greatest successes, Le Mépris/Contempt (1963) with Brigitte Bardot, Michel Piccoli, Jack Palance, and Fritz Lang. Then followed Bande à part/Band of Outsiders (1964) with Anna Karina and Sami Frey, Pierrot le fou/Crazy Pierrot (1965) with Jean-Paul Belmondo and Anna Karina, and the Science-Fiction film Alphaville/Alphaville: A Strange Adventure of Lemmy Caution (1965) with Eddie Constantine. The film won the Golden Bear award of the 15th Berlin International Film Festival in 1965. Other films from those years were Masculin, feminin (1966) with Jean-Pierre Léaud, and Week-end (1967) with Mireille Darc. Around the student uprisings of 1968, Godard became interested in Maoism. At that time he started an experimental political phase, which lasted until 1980. In the summer of 1968, together with Jean-Pierre Gorin, among others, he founded the Dziga Vertov Group, which wanted to make "political films political". Some films from that time are Le Gai Savoir (1968), Pravda and One Plus One/Sympathy for the Devil (1968), the latter of which includes a unique recording of the studio build-up by the Rolling Stones of the classic Sympathy for the Devil. In 1972 he made Tout va bien (1972), with Jane Fonda and Yves Montand in the lead roles, followed by Letter to Jane, a film about a photograph of Jane Fonda, which Gorin and Godard discuss. In 1972 he also met Anne-Marie Miéville, his later wife, with whom he made many films. This phase ended in 1980.

 

After twelve years of low budget, militant left-wing, and otherwise experimental film and video projects outside of commercial distribution, Jean-Luc Godard's first film that was more mainstream and accessible again was the drama Sauve qui peut (la vie)/Every Man for Himself (1980) with Isabelle Huppert, Jacques Dutronc, and Nathalie Baye. His films after that time are more autobiographical. For example, in Sauve qui peut (la vie)/Every Man for Himself there was a character named Godard. In 1982 and 1983 he made three related films Passion (1982), Prénom Carmen (1983) and Je vous salue, Marie (1984). The latter film was dismissed as blasphemy by the Catholic Church. The film King Lear (1987), which he made with Norman Mailer, also caused controversy. It was a bizarre postmodern take on the Shakespeare play, with theatre director Peter Sellars as a descendant of Shakespeare, Burgess Meredith as the mobster Don Learo, Jean-Luc Godard as the professor, and Woody Allen as a character called Mr. Alien. Not entirely coincidentally, Mr. Alien was also nicknamed Jean-Luc Godard. From 1989 to 1998, he made the series Histoire(s) du Cinéma, about the twentieth century and the history of film. His most recent film is the avantgarde essay Le Livre d'image/The Image Book (2018).
