Chris Marker has passed away (1921-2012)


Well it's just been confirmed by Le Monde that Chris Marker has died.

I never got to meet the man but was a big fan of his films esp sans-soliel.

Was only the other day someone said it was his birthday and that he was 91! I was shouting Yay for Chris Marker!

Anyway I'm sorry to pass on the sad news.
Missing him already.

Have to go now as I have a deadline today and sadly can't spend any more time thinking about this right now. Way the world is.

Anyway just stopping for a moment to remember the magic! :)

Take care.
