Agnès Varda is here to make friends. She’s pretty good at it, too. At 89, the legendary director, a major figure of France’s nouvelle vague of the 1960s, has had a lifetime of practice: she enticed audiences with classics like “Cleo from 5 to 7” and “Vagabond,” and, for the past two decades charmed a new generation with her intimate, first-person documentaries “The Gleaners and I” and “The Beaches of Agnes.” (She’s receiving a Governor’s Award from the Oscars this year for her lifetime of filmmaking achievement.) And through it all, she’s maintained relationships even with notoriously difficult people.
