As I am finishing your awesome video a friend texted me about Jane Birkin's passing. So sad. too young.

Je t’aime…moi non plus 💔

Seriously, so sorry for your loss. Make sure to attend your stages of grief. Of course you feel as you do. Very sad. She was still kinda young, amirite? Thanks for the video.❤

Thank you for making such a wonderful video and honoring her legacy with your channel... heartbroken to say the very least

Your words about Jane are so kind and sweet. Deepest gratitude.

Omg that's amazing!

What shop ? If i may ask - i live in paris :)

^^^ yes what shop? if you don’t mind sharing

They must be Foreigners or French teens cause to millennials and older French people, she’s well known

She had nothing to prove.

I love this ❤️ I, like everyone else, fear growing older and ageing despite my efforts to unlearn this thought pattern. But I do sincerely believe you when you say one’s 30s and 40s are often better. I look forward to getting to know that version of myself. Thank you for your comment!

Wait until you reach your 50's. Even more magical. 🙂🙃

I was the same way. Terrified of turning 30. I think I spent my entire 29th year in a state of existential dread. But now that I’m in my 30s, I wish I could tell my past self that everything will be okay. I am more confident and self assured now vs. my 20s. I’m not as critical of myself and I don’t accept shitty treatment from people like I did in my teens and 20s. It sucks that women are made to feel like their lives are over or they’re old before they are even middle aged. The older I get, the more I unpack the things that I was told to want or value and try to figure out what I actually want from my life. I didn’t even figure out I didn’t want to have bio kids until I was in my 30s. I feel like I’m just figuring out who I am vs. who I thought I should be.

I could not miss my 20s if I cared. I was totally miserable then, broke, lost, constantly heartbroken, incredibly noive, had no idea what to do with my life or myself, didn’t even want to be in this world 60% of the time. I am 42 now, look better than I did then and feel like am only now starting to live my life as I’m supposed to. Have finally found my research topic after having just published this book, straight on applied for a financed PhD and got in. My life is only starting now, everything else before was just practice and most of it was bad too. My entire life I could feel, I just knew, that I was a scientist, but because I didn’t yet know what my research topic was I spent decades going from meaningless job to meaningless job just to make ends meet, and being miserable. Stopped dating almost a decade ago because when you are lost you only attract toxic, the absolute worst for your life. So yeah y’all can keep your twenties and thirties, cause my 40s are when I am starting. Still have a lot to heal from the past two decades, but I feel like finally being able to do what I love for a living will really help with that. Look better than ever too, still have the same body I had at 19 because I never had children, and have always looked younger than my age. I look at people in their 20s now and can only hope that they are better prepared for life than I was at that age, but I’m not sure that that’s always the case. See all these young girls trying to go the easy route with only fans pages, not considering how much they will most probably regret it in a few years time. At least my 20s mistakes are not plastered all over the web forever for everybody to see. Most people in their 20s have no idea who they are. The search is harder for some than for others. For me it was hell, and I’m glad that that’s over. Never looking back. Here’s to being 42 and being able to finally be me, totally and unconditionally.

I feel fantastic in my 50s!

Oh wow that sounds lovely! I will definitely check it out, thank you for the recommendation💖

Aaah I love things like this, thank you 🤍

Fr

exactly omg

I agree completely!! Some of her statements felt healing haha. I feel similarly about Audrey Hepburn’s sentiments on ageing, when asked in her later years if she wanted her wrinkles photoshopped she said “Don’t you dare touch any one of those wrinkles, I earned every single one of them.”

I'm french and I didn't even notice anything bad with you're pronunciation so it must not be that bad ! Don't pay attention to negative people on the internet they would never say that to you in real life or they must be small-minded people. The more success you get with your videos the more negative comments will come unfortunately because that's the law of the internet and they will try to exagerate everything to make you as insecure as they are. Keep going, you're video was the best I've seen on Jane Birkin by the way, I love her and you did her justice ! ❤

@@warisdirie7976 Ah thank you for your kindness and words of encouragement. Your comment is much appreciated! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment, I’m glad you enjoyed the video☺️💖

You’re video was incredible. And I am very happy I watched today at 4 in the morning. It was beautiful and also sad, because I am turning 30, and i feel a shift in my life now. This video just made me more at ease knowing what jane said about being in her 30’s. It was poetry to me the way you spoke about her.

Mon Cheri~☆ You did a Beautiful job with this☆ I would just delete the rude comments & pretend they don't exist because You my love, are the ☆ here

French is my first language. Your accent is fine. There is absolutely no problem with it. Don't bother with these annoying french wannabes whose only exposure to french and france is the 1 week trip they made 3 years ago.

I would love to do Monica Belluci! Agreed completely, she is just captivating and has a timeless beauty. She’s one of my faves too!☺️💖

@@FinalGirlStudios YAY! I’m so happy to hear that. Thanks for responding, love 🫶

Same, I love Monica. She is so gorgeous ❤

omg and monica vitti!!!!!

Did you know she is playing Maria Callas in New York atm? Outside-the-box casting... and brilliantly inspired. Particularly special, as I believe Callas was born 100 years ago this year? Bellucci is as brave an actor as she is stylish and beautiful

I also think that women 40+ are definitely beautiful! I hope we can shift the narrative and start recognizing that women are beautiful far beyond the age of 25. Although I do agree with you, that we also should cultivate a sense of identity that is unrelated to our physical appearance. 💖

She is such a beautiful woman and has a fantastic style! Thanks for mentioning her, she would be a good one🥰

Couldn't agree more!!!!!!!

Great suggestion.

Yesss

It gets easier as you get a bit older, I think!❤ I'm 52, and I'm only just now getting to a place where I no longer feel that ...I don't know, stress?? Pressure maybe? Now when I go out, I aim for classy & elegant older woman. It's alot easier to just be who you ARE as we get older, IMO! ❤✌❤

Oh I adore her style! I may do a video on her as well ☺️

I second this!!!

@@Lemon.Girl14 YES! She is a truly fascinating figure in the Old French music scene

That "sexy" photo shoot where it looks like he's slapping Jane around gives me chills. Maybe it was consensual and all, but it looks like the usual mid-20th century abuse passed off as sexual liberation.

While I agree with you that by all accounts, Gainsboirg was abusive and into young girls, perception is reality. If Birkin absorbed more positive reinforcement than negative, then the reality, for her, is that it was good. When the bad outweighed the good, she left. She was not a helpless victim, and eloquently explains what the earlier days of the relationship brought her, and helped her to blossom and become herself. Life can be quite complicated. I understand her sentiments and decisions, and I respected her. I'll miss her.

Well said! I agree with you, he gives me the creeps!

You are sooooooo wrong.

@@ColetteV If that guy grew up and lived today, he'd be the head of the redpill movement maybe lol...with Serge's signature trolling style (like how he changed the french anthem to smth reggae for a shock shlock), this guy would be RP on acid. He's be cancelled for his comments about the young girls.

well people were "trying to hard" with their styles even back in the 60s and 70s. It has always been like that.

@what ever Yes, I agree with you, but we're discussing Jane Birkin in this documentary. 😉 🙌🏾

When I first saw images of her on Pinterest I didn’t know who she was. I thought she was contemporary, that the pictures were current. I loved her style. It seemed simple, timeless, classic and natural. I remember thinking “we need more influencers like this”.

Yes I agree! I found many of her sentiments surrounding ageing very profound, but I agree women are often still incredibly beautiful as they age, and still look wonderful if they decide to wear makeup and dresses and get all dolled up. I mean look at Dita Von Teese who’s 50 and still as feminine and striking as ever in her extravagant outfits, hair, makeup.

@@FinalGirlStudios Dita is a peach

wow, i am the 80's 90's Generation, why are you and, uh, hordes styled like how we grew up ? this is seriously strange and uncomfortable ?

Oh wow, your videos too Uh, we are not nostalgia

Thank you for watching!💖

for a more recent one: Anya Taylor-Joy

a video on Isabelle Adjani would also be interesting !

@@s_eliza I love Isabelle! She would a great one! ☺️

Bianca Jagger!

@@evangeline9052 she would actually be super interesting to explore!! Thank you for the recommendation 💖

Aw thank you!!💖

I have the same birthday (not same year) as Jane: December 14th. This is the sign of Sagittarius. It is a masculine sign and so the slim hips and tomboyish look is not surprising. I saw Jane in "Blow Up" and "Le Belle Noiseuse."

I felt the same way at 30 and trust me, just enjoy being your age. It's truly so young in the scheme of things!

I'll be turning 30 in November and I relate to what you said ♥

Elle a accompagné les Français dans leur vie depuis la fin des années 60. Je n'aimais pas particulièrement les chansons qu'elle chantait et je n'ai pas suivi sa carrière de comédienne mais je l'aimais bien pour son éternelle fantaisie et son sens de l'humour.

Faites attention à ce que vous écrivez et renseignez-vous sur le sens du mot "fiente" qui n'a rien à voir avec "feinte".

@@YvBernard Merci. I misspelled it by accident. You are very kind to point it out. Have a good day.
