she had fallen for and moved in with the heavenly psychedelic dandy painter Frédéric Pardo. Pardo had an interesting artistic pedigree; his father ran an art gallery, his mother was a close friend of Simone de Beauvoir and his godparents were Jean-Paul Sartre and Madeleine Malraux. Pardo’s best friend was the fascinating young underground filmmaker Philippe Garrel (son of Maurice Garrel). And Tina was smitten with her elegant unusually talented beau. With Frédéric Pardo many friends believed Tina had found her spiritual soulmate and their relationship was often remarked upon as one of intense closeness, characterised by private jokes, shared interests and grand passion. Their apartment in Paris was widely adored, both for its highly unusual décor (a combination of their exotic tastes) and for the like-minded people they drew to them. Pardo was heavily influenced by Medieval painting, the Pre-Raphaelites and Eastern art, and he used tempera in his paintings. These images influenced Philippe Garrel’s filmmaking, and set the painter apart from the other young artists of the scene due to his being highly influenced by former periods, unlike most of his modernism-obsessed pop art contemporaries. The circle that gravitated to Tina and Frédéric’s Paris apartment included visitors from Warhol’s Factory, London friends and the rebel caravan of Parisian actors and musicians known as La Bande de la Coupole. Evenings at the apartment would often include visits from Pierre Clémenti, Zouzou, Anita Pallenerg, Stash Klossowski, Jean-Pierre Kalfon and Bulle Ogier. Deborah Dixon described Tina during this period as “splendid, but already a little lost..” Musician Valérie Lagrange said “She was sublime, majestic. They lived in the first psychedelic apartment I’d ever seen, with black lights, Moroccan fabrics and cushions. They lived on the carpets: no table or chairs, Oriental-style. And Tina made some excellent Tagines!..Tina and Frédéric lived the life of a couple who were really together as one.” Tina later introduced Valérie to Jimi Hendrix in Rome. By 1967 Tina had started to appear in more underground films. By now she and Pardo had left France for Italy, where they had temporarily settled in Campo di Fiori in Rome. Following the Paris uprising of 1968, many of their Parisian friends joined them (some fearing arrest in France where they had been actively involved in the riots, others just ready to flee from the rigid heavy-handedness of French politics and social unrest). Tina’s years in Italy were probably the happiest of her life. Cinecittà, the cinematic nerve centre was on fire with creativity, and Tina was one of its burning torches. Her film appearances including a starring role in Pride and Vengeance (1968) with Franco Nero and Klaus Kinski, avant-garde erotic filmmaker Tinto Brass’s The Howl (1968), Polidoro’s Satyricon (1969) and Brocani’s Necropolis (1970, again with Clémenti). She was also working on Garrel’s cryptic Le Lit de la Vierge. Garrel was now looking for a soundtrack for Le Lit. Tina’s friend Nico had just made her beautiful album The Marble Index, and her arrival at that moment in Italy, along with Viva from The Factory, was to prove timely. At Tina’s home in Grottaferrata, where Garrel had been working on Le Lit, Nico and the young director were first introduced. Nico, Viva and Tina went off briefly to Rome to visit Clémenti who was being treated for a breakdown – allegedly after discovering that his wife had had an affair with Garrel during filming of Le Lit. Tina suggested that they all go together to Positano where she had rented a villa. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards had just finished writing some of the songs for Let It Bleed, notably Midnight Rambler and Monkey Man down there, and this Mediterranean beauty spot seemed to be a magnet for all sorts of creative mergings that year. The Positano party included Nico, Garrel, J-P Kalfon, Valérie Lagrange Margareth Clémenti, Tina and Frédéric. They stayed for nearly a year just off the coast on the tiny islands of I Galli. For most of them it was a magical time, and one in which no small of amount of hallucinogenics were consumed. Valérie Lagrange recalls how they sat around watching TV the night of the first moon landing, with a full moon outside and many a spliff passed around. During the filming of Le Lit de la Vierge, Pardo had shot his own super-8 and called it Home Movie, a beautiful record of the behind the scenes of the shoot, with some extraordinary moments in the stunning architecture of Morocco and in a late 60s London. The star of the film is undoubtedly Tina and the way in which Pardo captures her speaks absolute volumes about their relationship, which clearly at that moment was at its most complicit and intuitive. Over the next few years Tina appeared in several more films including Master of Love (Rondi, 1972)
