.jeres, who interviewed Jane Birkin at home in Paris for his Serge Gainsbourg memoir, writes a personal tribute to a woman “who made things happen” 💔
’s death has caused wavelets of grief in her country of birth, though in France where she lived since 1968, the news is more akin to a national disaster. The announcement on Sunday prompted a collective outpouring of sadness, especially on social media where her image has been an omnipresent aide-memoire of vintage 70s chic. With her partner of 11 years, Serge Gainsbourg, she’s become a fixture of idealised fidelity on platforms such as Instagram, in spite of their splitting in 1980.
A little later, I mentioned that a few nights earlier I’d seen her cameo in offbeat South Korean director Hong Sang-Soo’s, which set her off talking enthusiastically about cinema which she undoubtedly lived and breathed. Living a stone’s throw from the Église Saint-Sulpice, she regularly attended the famous old arthouse cinemas of the Latin Quarter incognito, watching old movies and the latest releases.
