Actor/filmmaker Pierre Etaix’s personal and most beloved movie, YOYO (1965), tells about an estate gone full circle. A 1920’s billionaire lives in an empty old estate but is not happy. His financial state is destroyed by the stock market crash, and he joins the circus. His son, decades later, becomes a famous movie star comedian and buys back his father’s former estate, and begins to restore it, an example of our debt and responsibility to the past.
Come and hear from President Alexander Ives show and tell how the movie links to the causes and work of the Preservation Foundation. The Preservation Foundation is a private, nonprofit membership organization dedicated to the preservation of the historic, architectural, and cultural heritage of Palm Beach, Florida. Through advocacy initiatives, educational programs, architectural resources, and cultural events, the Foundation’s goal is to encourage the community to learn about and save the historic buildings that truly make Palm Beach special.
