My Take
Nadine Trintignant strikes me as a filmmaker who mined her own emotional terrain rather than chasing spectacle. Born in Nice in 1934, she built a body of work around family and relationships, with films like Ca n'arrive qu'aux autres and L'ete prochain. I find it meaningful that Mon amour, mon amour was nominated for the Palme d'Or at Cannes in 1967, a real marker in an era when women directors were scarce. She's also a novelist, which fits the intimate, character-driven sensibility. A French filmmaker whose work I'd approach for feeling over flash.
