Jean Eustache, the gifted French director whose works seemed to capture so much of the energy and ambivalence of youth, died in November at the age of 43. Best known in the U.S. for his epic, The Mother and the Whore, Eustache visited the Pacific Film Archive in September 1975, when he presented the just-released Mes Petites Amoreuses (My Little Loves), as well as short films. Eustache's other features include Bad Company (Les Mauvaises Frequentations), consisting of Santa Claus Has Blue Eyes (1966) and Robinson's Place (1964), released in 1967; and Une Sale Histoire (1977). Eustache also appeared in Godard's Weekend, and Wenders' An American Friend, and his career, which began as assistant director and film editor, included several films for television.
