An Early, and Rather Ooh-La-La, Clue to the New Direction

From 1963, please enjoy the airplane scene from director Marcel Ophuls' charming New Wave comedy Banana Peel, featuring Jean-Paul Belmondo, one of the absolute icons of 60s cool.



And the great Jeanne Moreau. Also pretty cool.

In any case, a coveted PowerPop No-Prize will be awarded the first reader who gleans the clip's relevance to the theme of tomorrow's Weekend Listomania.
