From @tmagazine | Biarritz is in the French Basque Country, on the Bay of Biscay less than an hour’s drive from the Spanish border. 25,000 people live there year round; in the summer that number swells, peaking in August in the low bajillions. The 1920s were a glamour decade for #Biarritz. In August 1929, a beachfront casino opened in a dramatic and austere Art Deco building. A few months later, the stock market crashed. In 1939 Biarritz was in consideration to be the site of a new film festival, but forces from Cannes lobbied and won the bid. 10 years later, the casino played host to the first and only edition of the Festival du Film Maudit (Festival of Damned Film). In attendance were the young cinephiles who would go on to form the nucleus of the #French New Wave, like Jean-Luc Godard and Éric Rohmer. Rohmer eventually bought a house in Biarritz and vacationed there. Years later, in 1985, he shot his small masterpiece “Le Rayon Vert” (“The Green Ray”), a hymn to you youth — and to the beach town’s indefinable allure. @NickBallon took these photos while on assignment for @tmagazine in #Biarritz.
