Godard On Godard

By: Jean-luc Godard

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Jean-Luc Godard, like many of his European contemporaries, came to filmmaking through film criticism. This collection of essays and interviews, ranging from his early efforts for La Gazette du Cinéma to his later writings for Cahiers du Cinéma, reflects his dazzling intelligence, biting wit, maddening judgments, and complete unpredictability. In writing about Hitchcock, Welles, Bergman, Truffaut, Bresson, and Renoir, Godard is also writing about himself-his own experiments, obsessions, discoveries. This book offers evidence that he may be even more original as a thinker about film than as a director. Covering the period of 1950-1967, the years of Breathless, A Woman Is a Woman, My Life to Live, Alphaville, La Chinoise, and Weekend, this book of writings is an important document and a fascinating study of a vital stage in Godard's career. With commentary by Tom Milne and Richard Roud, and an extensive new foreword by Annette Michelson that reassesses Godard in light of his later films, here is an outrageous self-portrait by a director who, even now, continues to amaze and bedevil, and to chart new directions for cinema and for critical thought about its history.

Dictionnaire des passions

By: Jean-Luc Douin

Jean-Luc Godard, Dictionnaire des passions propose d’approcher l’univers du cinéaste de manière originale, ludique, intrigante, inhabituelle. Jean-Luc Douin jalonne la vie et l’oeuvre de Jean-Luc Godard, les épisodes marquants de sa biographie, les thèmes qui lui sont familiers, et les correspondances souterraines qui relient les uns aux autres, au fil de 250 entrées qui déclinent des films (longs ou courts), des collaborateurs, des maîtres littéraires ou cinématographiques, des comédiens, des comédiennes. Mais aussi des obsessions, des options politiques, des credos artistiques, des personnages, des lieux. Comment Godard fait bande à part, comment il parle de l’amour, du sexe, de la guerre, de la mort. Comment il voit la vie en noir, ou en couleurs. Comment il s’habille et comment il déshabille. Que signifient chez lui Mozart ou les Rolling Stones, et pourquoi ces images d’ange, de jardinier, de bagnoles américaines. Pourquoi il aime l’Allemagne et les Indiens. Ou il puise ses citations. Ce qu’il fait des mots, des voix, des accents, des insultes. Godard et le tennis ou le vélo, Godard et la censure. Godard et le ciel, Godard et l’usine, Godard face à l’Histoire, face à la télé, face aux femmes. Ses villes, ses salles de bains. Godard en mosaïque, ses amitiés, ses coups de gueule, ses références. Godard en un kaléidoscope facile à consulter, aisé à décrypter. La bible du godardophile. Tout ce que vous avez toujours voulu savoir, sans parvenir à tout savoir.

Six Films

By: Jean-Luc Godard

Phrases presents the spoken language from six films by Jean-Luc Godard: Germany Nine Zero, The Kids Play Russian, JLG / JLG, 2 x 50 Years of French Cinema, For Ever Mozart and In Praise of Love. Completed between 1991 and 2001, during what has been called Godard's "years of memory," these films and videos were made alongside and in the shadow of his major work from that time, his monumental Histoire(s) du cinema, complementing and extending its themes. Like Histoire(s), they offer meditations on, among other things, the tides of history, the fate of nations, the work of memory, the power of cinema, and, ultimately, the nature of love. Gathered here, in written form, they are words without images: not exactly screenplays, not exactly poetry, something else entirely. Godard himself described them enigmatically: "Not books. Rather recollections of films, without the photos or the uninteresting details... Only the spoken phrases. They offer a little prolongation. One even discovers things that aren't in the films in them, which is rather powerful for a recollection. These books aren't literature or cinema. Traces of a film..." In our era of ubiquitous streaming video, ebooks, and social media, these traces of cinema raise compelling questions for the future of media, cinematic, literary, and otherwise.

The Intruder

The Intruder

By: Jean-Luc Nancy

In 1991, Jean-Luc Nancy's heart gave out. In one of the first such procedures in France, a stranger's heart was grafted into his body. Numerous complications followed, including more surgeries and lymphatic cancer. The procedure and illnesses he endured revealed to him, in a more visceral way than most of us ever experience, the strangeness of bodily existence itself and surviving the stranger within him. During this same period, Europe began closing its borders to those seeking refuge from war and poverty. Alarmed at this trend and drawn to a highly intimate form of strangeness with which he had been living for years, Nancy set out in The Intruder to articulate how intrusion—whether of a body or a border—is not antithetical to one’s identity but constitutive of it. In 2004, Claire Denis adapted The Intruder into a film already hailed among the most important of our century. This edition includes Nancy’s and Denis’s accounts of turning philosophy into film and the text of a shorter collaboration between the two of them. Throughout, Nancy and Denis push us to recognize that to truly welcome strangers means a constant struggle against exoticism, enforced assimilation, and confidence in our own self-identity.
