Description
Jean-Luc Godard's writings offer a unique insight into his own creative process and intellectual curiosity. Spanning the period from 1950 to 1967, this collection of essays and interviews showcases Godard's dazzling intelligence and biting wit as he reflects on the work of influential filmmakers such as Hitchcock, Welles, Bergman, Truffaut, Bresson, and Renoir. Through his writings, Godard reveals himself as a thinker who is both original in his ideas about film and unpredictable in his approach. This book provides an important document of Godard's career, covering the period of some of his most notable films, including Breathless, A Woman Is a Woman, My Life to Live, Alphaville, La Chinoise, and Weekend. With commentary by Tom Milne and Richard Roud, and a new foreword by Annette Michelson, this book offers a fascinating study of Godard's career and his enduring influence on cinema and critical thought.
