His future.
He is respected all over the world,
adored by Jean Renoir and The Beatles,
Fritz Lang and Rolling Stones,
unanimously as the most talented of his generation.
He is Nouvelle Vague.
Jean-Luc Godard.
His name embodies a certain Cinema idea.
Unexplainable, wild, interesting,
funny, unexpected, confusing,
politics, charming, impolite,
young free.
And I love him.
I'm lucky enough to admire my lover
that has left print on me
Men who have revolutionized this film 10 years before,
has shaken my life too,
and will revolutionize itself.
I always know he will go.
I don't know when, or how,
or even why But I'm right.
This girl, maybe too pretty,
too young, too bourgeois,
will be twenty soon.
I fell in love with him.
This picture in 1967,
My first record with him
This film is La Chinoise, and he plays a Maoist student.
In real life, he studied philosophy,
he is his grandson a famous conservative writer.
Rebelling against the background, young cheerfully,
He dares to love men like me.
His name is Anne,
and he who is one who has decided to tell our story
Here he sees me as a successful person,
confident and seductive,
but I'm no longer Godard.
Mozart died 35 years old and he did it right.
Artists must die at 35 years old before becoming old farts.
In a few months, I will be 37 years old.
So are you happy
Very. Anne is amazing,
He brings spontaneity and youth For the film,
I am amazed.
You amaze me, Anne.
Not really, I'm very happy.
I'm planning a Chinese tour after Avignon.
Chinese people will like this movie.
You will become a revolutionary icon.
Mauriac's grandson is praised by Mao...
And your grandfather?
Is he aware of the film?
No. But he can say what he likes.
I am proud to be able to do this film.
If he can't see that: tough, Nobel prize or not.
I admire him, But I fell in love with Jean-Luc.
He must accept that.
All that and only 19!
- So do you go to America? - After shooting
Harvard first,
I gave a lecture, then 2 days in New York.
Only two days in New York? Poor.
This is not New York Pity, it is New York City And Anne must study, She goes back to college at the university next year.
I want it to get good political education.
He is an actress now.
Actress... I'm not sure it's a real job.
Actors are real stupid.
They are under humiliation.
They cry and laugh at the request,
even crawling...
I found it strange.
They are not free.
If you tell someone to say that the actor is stupid, I'm sure he will.
SHEILA, HAPPYAT LAST
Here, silence is the rule.
Like a big gray whale,
Le Redoutable submarine, launched today, March 29,
impose silent supremacy at a depth of several hundred meters...
Tranquility and calmness rule
in this 128 meter diameter cylinder.
135 submarines are given a 70-day mission.
They cannot be tight, and need a hard head:
in the labyrinth of stairs
low ceilings, narrow corridors,
and many obstacles.
To stay sane, and to implement it their mission is successful,
People must philosophically accept daily disturbances.
Everyone is raving,
and lots of relaxing activities
intended to maintain high spirits
Anticyclone from 1028/1000 bar
spread east of France
with a little change
South West part of the South Atlantic
still moving north Ireland and Scotland.
Hello.
Revolutionary beings,
Redoutable submarine
glide in peace, are aware of its power.
Although ready to attack,
This is distinguished by its calmness.
Such is life on board Redoutable
"That's how life is aboard Redoutable."
This is amazing
What?
Birth column: Mister & Madam I have a daughter,
they call him Mary.
Marry me?
Yes my dear.
Marry me.
On the other hand Become a pro cons
Always never agree
Should we go out?
Do what?
Just come out, like everyone else.
Just because everyone does it?
Do you know what he calls?
Exile.
Well I like everyone, and that won't stop me alive.
Very spiritual But unlike you,
I don't feel like everyone.
I don't need to, precisely because I live.
Look, I feel like walking backwards,
so I'll
I like to do what other people don't,
everything that is not allowed, or not the thing that is done.
It is precisely because no one has done it.
Besides you, Phil-Jean is the great Jean-Luc.
I know what you like.
You do
I know what interests you
You want to live
like they do in theaters.
That is impossible.
In real life, people forget their keys, catch the bus...
There is no sound spoken
"Anne loves Jean-Luc."
That doesn't happen.
You do other things,
You eat, watch movies, go shopping.
But if you love me, it's different,
You do different things.
You don't need voice over.
Anne loves Jean-Luc
But he talks too much.
Sometimes he is surprised by his desire to be different.
As his friends say,
he chooses an odd ball.
What are you doing? You are not ready
Stop Amigo!
That won't do you any good. There are 3 of us.
Hey you!
You know your face is beautiful is quite worth $ 2000?
Yes,
but you don't look like that who will collect it
Come on amigo, a few steps back.
ALL GREEK MAO TO ME
Alice on Swann's Way.
Don't mess with 40 thieves.
Ali Baba and Virginia Woolf.

23 hours in 80 days.
1001 Midsummer Nights' Dream.
Rising 3 Small Pigs.
You lose!
- 3 Little Pigs are not books. - really
What is that? Opera?
No. A fairy tale. Not a book.
You always change the rules.
Yes I do I see?
Advantages Marxist-Leninist rhetoric:
it keeps you out of anything
Apart from La Chinoise,
my bourgeois education makes me
far from the Mao proverb
and analysis of General Lin Bao.
Jean-Luc was finally invited to the Chinese Embassy
to organize Chinese film tours.
Hello my love.
Are you okay?
No.
Chinese say that my film is nonsense.
What? The Chinese
The Chinese... I don't know the Chinese!
I didn't catch their names.
Chinese names are very complicated.
Chinese at the embassy
Oh no.
You say it
What do they say?
They say it's his work from reactionary fools,
I misunderstood the revolution,
and if they can,
they will ban the title of the film.
Chinese are crazy!
Stop with Chinese!
They are not a problem...
Sorry.
I think the tour...
Well, the tour will be limited to the Avignon festival.
Don't worry dear
I like your movie.
I am proud to be in it.
Yes, right.
I'm sure many will like it.
Very?
I wonder who.
Don't worry,
Such is life on board Redoutable
Are you married in Switzerland?
Is that true? do you marry his grandson Mauriac?
Wait for a press conference! We will talk later.
Like the Beatles. We are not the Beatles.
So Avignon proudly welcomed it
a world premiere,
at the Palais des Papes, For the first time
director Jean-Luc Godard.
We are honored for the screen in Avignon
the movie: La Tonkinoise.
No. La Chinoise, Mr. Vilar.
La Chinoise, I'm sorry.
One question. You just got married
Grandson Mauriac The reaction?
Of course,
he is happy, he smiles, we kiss.
I mean the reaction of François Mauriac.
I know. Thank you.
You don't want to reply or...?
We are here to talk about art, Not showbiz gossip.
There are questions
Definitely about the movie, La Tonkinoise.
- La Chinoise! - What did I say?
- You say La Tonkinoise! - Oh!
- It's impossible! - don't worry
Are you married secretly?
Please! Only questions about La Chinoise!
La Tonkinoise!
You are here to indicate
a film that takes place in the Maoist circle.
Are you a Maoist?
If I'm
You definitely want to know what Mauriac is thinking?
But are you a revolutionary?
I am for 100 blooming flowers and 100 competing thoughts.
A Mao thing?
Hal Mao Tse.
He is a jerk for example.
What does Avignon mean to you?
I am happy to be here, with my wife.
And I want to thank
Herve 'Vilar.
Jean Vilar!
- You tempt me again! - Exactly.
Fair enough.
This is a Communist Party mistake.
So we have to go thousands of miles for our ideals.
For Peking.
Listen.
Whatever the view,
a communist cannot automatically treat it
Chinese cultural revolution as superficial
Like other arguments.
This is an unprecedented fact.
And there is this:
It's not about exporting a revolution,
like the Chinese,
but the political lessons concern all of us
All communists.
Answer Guillaume!
Vietnam is burning and I shout "Mao! Mao!"
Johnson laughs and I'm tall Mao! Mao!
"That can be a great film,
" about tragedy, dreams and reality,
"But it's just a cruel description, sympathizing
" with ignorance from puberty of bourgeois politics.
"And when asked how to change the world and rebel,
" La Chinoise can just provide it beautiful response
"With Godard, it's just sickening nonsense.
" We hate classes that are chatting
"and their relentless lectures..."
Well... everything continues with the same tone.
They also don't like it.
Yes but
Les Lettres Françaises likes it.
Les Lettres Françaises?
- We write a nice piece - But everyone knows we are friends.
But what they say is good.
Isn't that important?
That is not the point.
I have to accept my mistake.
Chinese,
critics, students, Mao, No one likes this film.
Not to mention the public...
This is not so important.
Well, it's on one side.
Only Commies like that.
A perfect failure.
I think it's revolutionary,
it's just conventional
Movies are not fun.
Actors, spotlights, stories, all dead.
Today's cinema is dead, I can't do it anymore.
It will be like making love to a deceased woman
You're ridiculous
You can't stop just for 3 jerks!
I agree! You are talented You are Godard
Stop saying that. I'm not Jean-Luc Godard.
He doesn't exist. I just pretended to be Godard.
I am an actor who plays Godard.
Even very good actors.
Let's go. We will be late.
Yes, let's go
I don't know what to do,
This is very troubling
Sometimes he doubts simple things, like he forgets who he is.
I just hope he can enjoy making another movie
With charm and light, he does well.
I want to help him but... I don't know how.
Time changes.
In today's world, light and charm...
I feel he doesn't even want to.
Or he doesn't like cinema anymore.
I don't think so. Believe him, he is Godard.
What else does he like?
He won't open a butcher shop...
You are right. I might be naive.
Wait...
- Are you okay, honey? - Yes, continue!
The problem is I don't know what to do.
I'm wrong La Chinoise is wrong, that's all.
I need to create something new.
True political cinema.
- You are always political. - No, I'm just pretending.
I'm tired of playing with the middle class.
Now I want to make a movie about Canadian Indians
reject oil wells on their land.
How do I turn it into a cinema? That's my question
Use Alain Delon with feathers on her ass?
No, but you film. Not politics.
The same thing. Everything is political.
Pretending it's not nonsense.
Choosing to get out of politics is a political choice.
GOOD. But what about the cinema?
That is why Truffaut.
Romantic film. Everyone cares is love.
As Guitry said, it makes your heart weary.
Pretty sentiment dictatorship.
Sentiment does not make a revolution.
- Do you believe in a revolution? - Of course!
I will explain: politics is like shoes.
There are left and right, finally you want to go barefoot.
I think France will soon want to be barefoot.
- OK - Yes, of course.
If the workers wake up, the police and army will follow...
That can happen quickly.
Shing and farting soothes the stomach.
Guitry again?
No, that's Mao.
JOIN ANGRY!
Live revolution!
Jean-Luc is wrong about workers, police and soldiers.
But less than a year later,
As a sentiment involved,
the revolution came to Paris.
Finally Jean-Luc is in the right place, at the right time.
He feels in tune with the world.
De Gaulle is a damn pump!
Pompidou is a damn pump!
They are all pesky pumps!
Free our friends!
The government must resign!
Excuse me, are you Jean-Luc Godard?
I know that!
When will you make funny movies again
When people can laugh in Vietnam, Palestine and Yemen,
or black people in America, maybe so
Not for a while.
Who knows? Look around you...
Do you just like funny movies?
No but... real life is not as pleasant as it is,
So at the cinema...
Why can movies differ from life?
Vietnam is part of your life, right?
Are there Kurds not there?
OK, but you made a movie,
You are not the Secretary of State.
Maybe not, but I can take interest in people.
But we want you to get it people are interested
Before taking an interest in them.
It's complicated to talk to you.
Stay close to me in situations like this.
I'm close to you...
That's what I said.
We agree.
De Gaulle resigns!
Going away!
- What? - we go
See you later.
Not afraid?
Not all of them.
I think the atmosphere is great.
Police: SS!
Fucking fascist! Bastard!
- Godard is not happy! - IAM very angry!
That shows!
Are you good baby
Police: SS!
Bastard
- GOOD? - Yes!
GOOD?
- Yes. - Need help?
No, go comrade.
- GOOD? - Yes.
That is very painful.
- Your glasses... - They're messed up
- Is it still sick? - Yes, only the muscles are taken away.
Oh shit...
What?
Sorry, I didn't recognize you without your glasses
Sorry?
No... do your work...
My wife and I love humiliation.
Bring good works...
Thank you.
Do you really say thank you?
Alright...
"OK"? He said "yes" too!
What?
Now "what is that"! We are improving.
Progress like that. From "good" to "good".
Why not make it also a salad?
Never thank the police, okay? Ever!
Even if he helps you. You never thank them.
- So what should I say? - There is no!
If you have to speak, say "die, you're nonsense!
" I will hang you with your ball with the contents of the last priest's stomach. "
That's all you have to say!
Anger adds tension,
which has increased throughout the day.
For the past 3 hours now
students have occupied boulevard,
facing police
More than a thousand demonstrators
just build a stone barricade...
Sorry, the police have asked us to bring down the window
- Why? - Riots, Madam.
- What? - Fighting in the environment...
- So you obey the police? - extraordinary
- It's okay, forget it. - Forgive me.
You can order it, we only need to turn off the shutter.
Good. Finally peace.
What did he say?
He said good.
Then we won't hear that young idiot playing war
Bastard
Sorry?
I say bastard
Very smart...
You call us young idiots.
You have proven me right.
I am proud to be a young idiot.
Better than traitors and prostitutes.
My husband has a war medal!
- I'm not a traitor! - Do you have a medal?
I fought in 2 wars!
And see the results!
If you are still alive You must be hiding!
You are lucky I am too old to teach you some respect.
- Respect my ass - a little nonsense
That is totally unreasonable.
You just called the old woman a prostitute.
How can I know, I don't have my glasses.
It's better to be a prostitute than to marry a bastard
Am I right, honey?
Is a teacher there? did the students negate it?
He is no longer there!
There is no boss if the worker negates it.
Same for the police!
That's what we are doing here.
We don't want things to stay the same,
because because they they are not good!
Shut up! I was told Jean-Luc Godard is here.
Where is he? We want him to speak.
He is here!
I'm here.
Here Damien...
We bring you a microphone...
Director of Breathless. Insult.
La Chinoise. I've never seen it But I was told it was very good.
Thank you...
I came here to listen. But if you want me to talk...
Well the problem is...
I think the first question should be: What is a revolution?
Mao says "Revolution is a drama".
OBJECT MOVEMENT
Che Guevara said the same thing.
AROUND THE MIDDLE POINT
"Create Vietnam in us."
BRING BACK PERIODIC
The revolution starts with yourself!
To the same point
As for me...
"Me, me, me!" Always about you
Grow some Jean-Luc balls,
instead of shooting nonsense!
Shut your mouth!
Shut up!
Godard is a consumer product!
Shut your mouth!
A pair of powers!
Same as Coca-Cola or Mickey Mouse
That is you!
Shut up!
Please calm down!
You are not dangerous
You pee in the wind!
Hey Godard!
And my ball, do you like them?
What's wrong?
None.
Why did you let them say those things?
Once you are with a student you lose all your confidence.
You let them say something.
You might be right.
Maybe because he is young.
He speaks from the heart so he is right.
Even if he is wrong it doesn't matter.
I don't like parents.
So when that parent is me...
I don't like myself.
Deep down Jean-Luc likes these young activists.
They are political, smart,
smart, arrogant,
rowdy, can't be fixed,
concerned,
not polite, rusty,
subversive
and young.
dear activists hate Jean-Luc,
and he agrees with them.
He is in a deadlock.
He must change.
HAZARDOUS LIFE
Not your film like that,
that's all they are from another era
If we accept a revolution, we must decide who we are.
Whether we are a police officer, or a revolutionary.
So it's good that we make a revolutionary _ film or film.
This is not about giving accounts of revolution
It's about living it.
Making a movie in a revolutionary manner.
Like workers freed from patriarchy.
This does not give voice workers.
The intellectual role now
is a sounding board.
Who is Jean-Luc speaking there?
He looks fascinated.
J.P. Gorin, from Le Monde.
- Le Monde des Livres. - He is still very young
A bit long-winded but charismatic.
He works with you at La Chinoise, right?
As a consultant?
Yes but...
especially with Jean-Luc, I...
Obviously.
The problem is how to manage it yourself
with a film crew.
Do you want to drink?
No thanks, my dear.
Sorry, continue.
Yes, I say the question is, how do we apply the same path,
for schools and factories,
for creative work...
Excuse me...
Which implies an Author with "A" capital,
but also a business group.
So what do you do about power?
Excuse me... Who are the people there?
A dancer. Very good.
A little cocksure, but very good.
You are very annoying If you idolize someone like that.
- me? - Oh, Please.
You stare at it, practically drooling
You have courage, You hardly speak to me at all.
I'm talking to Gorin.
That's different.
Not a ballerina!
If you admire someone like that, I wonder why you're with me...
You like feathers at grace wind. Very convincing.
This way!
- Are you okay? - Yes.
- Are you hurt? - No, it's just his glasses.
Where are they?
Maybe on the ground. I can't see anything.
I think they are here...
I don't believe.
Now they already have it.
Now they are really messed up.
That's because of my shoes.
I need some who don't slip while running.
They are very good, perfect.
Thank you. I will take them.
Sorry for yesterday.
It's okay.
I don't mean to make you jealous.
But you ignore me.
You must be more independent,
out of your automatic alienation
Especially when I'm with Gorin.
Yes.
But I want you to love me.
We will love each other later.
- Now revolution. - Who is this?
Chairman Mao or General Lin Bao?
Don't be too bourgeois.
Some things are more important.
Vietnam for example.
Good.
But I married Godard the director,
not a political commissioner.
Don't play idiots.
Freedom!
Paris on the street!
Oh look! Jean-Luc!
- Hello - Hi!
- Hello, how are you? - Hello Godard
- what's your name again - Jean-Jock
Michel, this is Jean-Jock, a friend.
This is Michel Cournot, film critic,
Director. He made films called Les Gauloises Bleues,
selected for Cannes.
Oh that...
- Cannes... Film festival? - Yes, alright...
That's ridiculous
Who cares about Cannes?
Only fools go this year!
With everything happening now!
That's funny
He is really right.
Okay, we won't laugh all day!
Bravo for La Chinoise.
My friends and I enjoyed it.
Thank you.
Seriously...
Seriously thank you then.
You're welcome.
Will you make a movie again? like Breathless?
I don't know
Because it's really good.
Really, that's very good.
Okay thanks.
You have to use Belmondo, he's good.
Funny too! You have to make more with him.
I will think about this.
I will not bother you again Mr. Godard.
- Yes. Goodbye. - See you later
He is good.
Oh yeah, very good.
A good producer too. I should have asked for his name card.
Are you Jean-Luc Godard?
I just want to say that you are extraordinary.
Especially your film.
OK thank you.
But I'm not...
I'm a film student. My thesis is with you
Seeing you amazing,
For me your film embodies freedom.
For example, the subject you are treating
like, for example... urbanism!
Sorry, what do you really want from me?
None. I like your movie, I've learned it.
I sent you a letter...
This is very annoying.
Sorry. I don't mean to...
Yes, but such a cinema is dead.
This is irrelevant Dead.
Like you. You might think you are still alive but you are a zombie
Let's go.
And you destroy my shot in a way.
That's better. My legs are very hurt...
I don't know how far we walk every day...
That's not all,
it's my new shoe
I should have put a wet newspaper in it
to stretch them
EVERYTHING IS BRIGHTER WITH MAO
This generation is bored.
Who cares about Vietnam? when is it very bright?
I love young people!
They are very funny!
On the wall near my house someone wrote:
"God also creates nonsense".
Isn't that good?
God also creates nonsense.
Come to Cannes?
- I don't know - You have to.
At least for Cournot's sake...
Jean-Luc won't agree. They want to stop the festival.
Do you want to go?
Yes, I think so.
Then leave. Just tell him
And that's not fair in Cournot.
You can come with us if you want...
They might not even be able to stop it.
Godard! Will you make a movie about all this
Filmmakers for young people and rebellions.
No, I won't make a movie.
I will start a revolution. Like other people.
But that means cutting the head.
Can you do that?
I am ready to start with myself. After that, I will see.
A good motto...
What do you do to have a good sweater?
Who did he talk to?
Eric de la Meignière
He works for Publicis.
Ouch.
You say it
I hate advertising.
Very? But you're an expert.
No. Advertising is fascism.
So what is fascism?
Fascism is...
it's fascism too... You think you're funny
No, but your rhetoric.
So copy me. That won't change anything.
You will only look stupid.
I don't mock you Mao is the problem.
Precisely, Mao means revolution. That means your death.
You must hate Chinese to connect Mao like this
Wait... Enter Mao?
Who is talking here?
Are you talking?
Or Publicis? Is that Pompidou? Where are you
I'm here. But you sit on a pile of corpses...
Defeat intelligence.
Both of them jerked.
You can't go to Cannes, that's impossible.
Solidarity with students is very important. The cinema must be contacted.
No, don't say shut up.
Why create a movie that can be talked about? if no one is talking...
Sorry but...
GOOD.
I am not aware.
Well, I will ask him
I'll call you back.
Talk again later...
Rosier said the strike would cause travel chaos
I see?
He thinks we should go today.
Tomorrow at the latest
So my opinion doesn't count?
I might as well just pee in the wind.
No, I hear.
But I want to go.
If only for Cournot.
Demi Cournot...
Besides, you can't. Nothing is organized
He said I only need a dress.
We can live with his stepfather.
You mean father-in-law...
- Bamban's father, or...? - No.
His stepfather, Pierre Lazareff.
50 years of journalism.
Pierre Lazareff wrote his first article 15 years old.
At 20 o'clock he became the head of the news.
In 1930, when Europe slid into war,
Lazareff goes to America.
He returned in 1944 and created the French newspaper Soir.
Staunch Gaullist, above all loyal.
To his friends, colleagues, wife,
but especially for General de Gaulle.
Pierre Lazareff...
It takes biscuits...
Hello!
Exclaimed Jean-Luc. He is in Cannes.
End of vacation...
Now to the cinema.
Today at Cannes, an delegation consists of Truffaut, Resnais,
Lelouch and Godard,
demand immediate cancellation from the film festival
Mr. Godard started the conference cheerfully, even messing around,
with irony, and I quote:
"That is a hard struggle to conquer the hall,
" Only ice cream can make us go! "
But things heat up.
As you will hear, the subject turns to politics :
Action committees for French films
ask all directors,
producers, actors, journalists present here
to oppose the festival
in protest against de Gaulle's government
and structure of the film industry.
We are late!
This is the time to show the solidarity of the film industry with student and worker movements.
The only way is to stop all playback now!
I demand the festival stop!
I am talking about solidarity with workers,
You are talking with tracking pictures and close-ups, bastards!
In this toxic context,
the festival was officially canceled.
Fortunately, no one is hurt,
But Mr. Godard jostled in the clash,
and break the glasses.
Fortunately it's not worse.
Until you are in Paris.
PIERROT THE CONTEMPT
Goodbye.
Yes goodbye.
But you are tanned!
This looks good, right?
No.
You will look like Ursula Andress.
Great.
What's the problem? You reach your destination.
I only do what I have to do.
But you don't get tan because of in a revolution
Maybe not Lenin, but Che browned...
Very funny. Does anyone have a car to take us to Paris?
Yes, but there is no gas.
That is impossible. There must be!
Not enough for Paris.
That doesn't make sense.
It can't be hard to get.
How long will it take?
There is no flashing idea!
The idea flashes?
You want a general strike. You must be happy
me! That's why I don't want to sleep on Lazareff's bed.
You are in the living room.
By the way we love him very much.
So, pay attention to what you say about him!
I just can't wait to go back. Forgive me.
It's okay.
But without a car, you have to walk.
Feel free
If you can wait for a car,
both
live in Lazareff's house.
Life is funny
You love Mao, now you have kimono
Oh, shut up.
However, kimono is Japanese.
And between you and me,
why Lazareff has a kimono in his closet?
Are you okay?
Yes, okay.
I am reading.
I go to the bedroom.
GOOD.
Everything will be sour
Violence strategy
Sparks will fly
Wine is angry
The desire and envy
Misfortune
What are you doing?
- Want to swim? - No.
I expect a call.
It makes no difference if you go down.
That makes a big difference to me.
But you just continue.
That's what we need right now.
You go swimming, relax. This is very important for the country.
OK, I will.
With Rosier my fellow bourgeois revisionists.
A little fool.
Are you okay?
Look, I'm sorry
I regret what I said.
It's okay.
What is happening?
Emile can find us enough gas to take us to Paris
Very good. Great.
Emile is good.
- Hello - Yes sorry.
We will take Cournot in Cannes on the way.
We take Cournot?
What car is that?
No, okay, we will take Cournot.
The problem is, this film is fragile.
Cannes Festival
will put in the spotlight.
But the film is good. Many people will go and see it.
This is not about that,
it will help this film make a sign
And premiering in Cannes,
for a film, for a director
is something special. I thought.
That's what happened...
Of course...
From a collective point, I understand that is the only way.
From a personal angle, however,
I'm a little disappointed.
A little frustrated
This is understandable.
If at least I can show the film.
Will he upset us all night?
Oh, Jean-Luc.
Otherwise, I'd rather walk. You can't whine as far as 800 km, Michel.
I don't whine! Try to understand me.
No. Sorry You must have looked stupid.
Your film in Cannes, with a chaotic country.
We have saved you from a donkey look.
Of course Renoir's film is bourgeois!
He uses a dominant bourgeoisie - a system like everyone else.
Only fools don't understand that...
A revolution means kills the existing film form,
including me, but also Lang, Renoir, Ford.
You can mock, but...
Only a few subversive comedy deserve to be saved
Jerry Lewis, brother Marx... The rest: in the trash.
If Renoir is suitable for trash, There is no point talking.
It's not easy to talk to Jean-Luc.
Of course if you can't understand...
We have 800 km to go, so...
Good me...
You... I...
I don't go to the movies a lot.
I don't know anything.
But I know, for example, that I like good stories
Because there are enough bad things in life already,
I also don't want to see it on film.
That's how I choose movies, however...
When I leave.
Yes of course.
That's right, cinema is also for entertainment,
one doesn't want... of course.
What do you think?
None. I will not see the cinema in relation to Emile.
I don't tell farmers how to run agriculture.
- You bastard! - Come on...
He takes you back to Paris and that's how you treat it!
You are only interested in yourself.
- Oh, lectures from the bourgeoisie. - Fuck you
- You're not a bourgeois - Yes but I realized it!
You talk about farmers but you don't see them!
I have always been a scapegoat.
Once you have a super ego, but it's gone
Now you're just a bastard!
It's hard to talk to you.
No one has ever thought maybe I'm right
You are lucky we are friends, If not your film,
I will say what I really think.
And you must have experienced bad luck.
SAVE YOUR ASS
I'm sorry honey.
I am stressed right now.
I'm really nervous, sorry.
Don't worry baby Can't wait.
Things will return to normal soon.
No, they won't do it.
This is a revolution. Permanent state
Sure...
This may be a historic moment.
Maybe right when we talk
the miracle of life begins.
Maybe we just gave birth.
That thought occurred to me.
If our son will call him Salvador.
Why?
I always want to be Salvador Daddy.
You are very stupid Mr. Godard!
Don't say we live at Lazareff's, okay?
We already look like tourists...
Paul!
- Anne, how are you - good!
You look beautiful,
You are already in the sun, is suitable for you.
- thank you - You look rested,
this is good.
You are very good.
OK then...
Goodbye
We have to talk about the world, not only France!
About Vietnam,
Yemen, Black Panthers,
Kurds, Sudan...
and also about Palestine.
We must!
We must say,
without fear, that Jews
has become a Nazi today!
We have to say it!
Wait a minute, Are you seriously thinking about our committee?
Will Jews become Nazis?
Why not?
Nobody thinks we are all German Jews
So we are all Palestinians too.
Today's Jews are Nazis yesterday!
Or rather,
The Jews yesterday were Nazis today.
No, that's all!
Yesterday the Jews today, were yesterday's Nazis
Anyway we have to ask Who are Jews today?
No! Only who is the Nazi.
Today.
No?
Thank you Jean-Luc, very good.
But it's actually not a topic today.
There has never been a subject today!
Remember Che Guevara said we must create inner Vietnam?
And so we must first be
we have to start... what?
Start with our own Vietnam!
Now we will listen to François Berthier,
a worker from Sud-Aviation.
Is François here?
It's important to hear the story.
We will not go anywhere, we are too sentimental...
Godard: the highest Swiss-Maoistjerk
Godard:
the highest
Swiss-Maoists
jerking
There's no point staying here...
This is just a slogan,
it's unfair, reckless, cheating.
Right. But the problem is, they are right.
That's what Godard has become. A teenage idol.
A celebrity pretends to be a revolutionary
I can't stand that jerk.
I will change notes.
Leave like that
FIRST of MOHICANS
We cannot aspire to freedom of speech,
while begging for money from producers
like a beggar tenant from the land owner.
This is a disgrace! 19th century paternalism is a shame
We must reclaim the cinema.
Cinema must be like a hammer.
A simple tool that everyone can have and must use.
You are right,
This is the only legitimate type of cinema,
and that's interesting too.
For the first time in ages
I have the right conditions and I'm heading in the right direction.
Where I intended to be.
I MAKE MISTAKES.
This is Marx Brothers.
Great idea!
Very cheerful
How are you doing, Jean-Jock?
Good and you?
It can't be better. I just died!
What?
Not me.
But Godard is dead.
We have prepared a group and I will only work on it.
So I feel like I was reborn.
What is this group
Dziga Vertov.
Dziga what?
Dziga Vertov Group.
- Bless you! - You do not know?
That's normal.
Dziga Vertov.
Russian Avant-garde
Men with cameras. Cine-eye theory?
No, I've never heard of it!
Cinema without script, no actors,
no theater, no literature
There is no audience?
- Stop joking. - This is annoying.
Who is in the group
Only Jean-Luc and me for now. You too?
Right.
I don't know What are you thinking about?
I think... what he just said...
What's wrong?
I just found out you are dead.
Well, if you say it like that, I understand...
This is renaissance.
Renaissance You really go
- What time is it? - Almost two.
I have to go. Meet with the board of directors.
- I think you don't like them? - Not me.
That's why I have to see them.
Have fun, honey.
As experienced by May,
maybe because of the increase in the cost of from optical experts,
Jean-Luc
losing interest in student demonstrations
He becomes radical, dedicates himself to the Dziga Vertov group.
As usual,
He concludes his ideas in slogans. Latest:
What I like about the student movement is movement,
not students.
That is how May ends for us,
without us knowing what we have changed.
What are you doing?
This is the trick of an activist.
Glue on the fingertips,
to hide your fingerprint.
For what?
For what...
As you can imagine: is a bit chaotic, but very interesting.
I am very happy with what happened here
Yes, why not? That can be interesting.
Well, I'll talk to him.
I will ask him then call you back.
This stupid glue
That is Bertolucci.
We were invited to a conference.
Want to leave?
I don't know Conference and debate...
Please come.
Bernardo and Paola want us. That will make us good,
a few days in Rome.
I don't know...
Please... you are my wife,
Don't make me go alone
They love us there. That can be great.
I don't have anything...
I have nothing to do with what you just said.
You have a revision...
You have revisionist ideas about cinema.
That makes me sick,
your romantic cinema idea and art in general.
What? How can you say that?
You insult your own work!
Pierrot le Fou! Insult! Out of breath!
May I continue
I deny them,
and all my other films! They are bad luck!
I disagree with Jean-Luc.
That is important to us.
They have shown us a new way make films
I have said everything I have to say,
I didn't add anything.
With struggle, comrades.
I am starving,
I hope they have ordered dinner. Arrival?
Why did you do that?
Nothing is ridiculed.
Who decides that? you?
You can thank me, because I didn't contact you directly.
Because of Paola and Anne.
But now this is the truth.
You and I have made nonsense.
But you will continue to do it,
know well what you do.
You have betrayed the ideals of your youth I will tell you something,
we have become enemies
So?
Upset
You and your pretentious sermon.
You aren't even aware You spit out nonsense.
You talk about working class, but you don't know them
You don't realize how much they hate you.
You are a little...
You are stupid nonsense.
Fuck off.
At least everything is clear.
Time to separate.
Arrival?
No.
I live...
Let's go.
Look, we will go to Prague with Gorin,
that will make us good to make a movie together.
Fun things are in store,
more exciting than this nonsense.
We will find something new.
What do you think?
I don't know
I don't know what I want.
Don't worry, I know I'm hard on Bernardo,
But he's a revolutionary.
I promise to call him for real discussion...
and apologize GOOD?
Or even apologize first, then discuss.
You are interested in him, right?
He's handsome...
What can you do? That's the life on the Redoutable ship.
Are there plans today? Are you in a good mood today?
No. What's up for you
Is the bread fresh? I choose the conversation. I'm your master
Want some? I don't want you to be angry.
No thanks. I am doing fine. That's all we need...
Nothing is planned I want to be alone.
No. No, I live with you.
None. I will watch over you.
Ferreri sends a telegram. I have bad news...
He sent a script today. I want to be free.
Good. Don't try, honey.
Don't know what... It's better to talk about it later I think.
You will see soon. Yes you're right. Let's do it this way.
I love him as much as possible.
As long as I can.
Although this man has opened my mind and showed me the world,
our horizon begins to shrink.
Without pain
Little by little.
See who it is!
Hello! How are you?
- And you? - we're great
- What about you? - Good.
Good...
It's sad that it ends this way.
No, this is just the beginning!
Yes, maybe.
Not spectacular, but changes will come
I feel everything has returned to how it was.
On the contrary, I think something
In people's minds really changes.
Maybe... I don't know.
We have to go.
We will talk soon.
- See you later, Jean-Luc. - See you again.
See you Anne.
- See you later. - See you later.
This person is really crazy!
Every single scene!
Naked in everyone!
Will you reject it?
Yes of course.
Actually, can you call him for me?
- Tell him not for both of us. - Of course.
And I would even be happy to tell him.
That person might be talented, but he is crazy
Need locking.
This is Jean-Luc.
I call because we have read it.
I think this is a good script.
This shipwreck story, It's political, metaphorical, romantic...
This is amazing, very strong.
But my wife doesn't want to do nude scenes
He is very young, is inappropriate
Yes, it will be different,
but I don't see how, it for every scene
That's the beauty of the script,
the allegory of Adam and Eve, back to nature...
Contact us if you find a solution.
But please do not damage it in our account
Yes, I will tell him.
Ciao Maestro, then!
What did he say?
That he will handle it.
I don't know how, this film is very nudist.
That is always surprising, this obsession directors have naked actors.
I don't understand.
Sometimes the script justifies it, isn't that right?
I don't think so.
Except for porn movies,
where stories need them, but other than that...
Maybe my Swiss Calvinist side,
but I feel silly.
Now if I was offered an movie with a naked scene
whose text is justified,
I think I'll do it.
Very? I don't want
Good I will
Hello Marco
A good idea! It was great!
I am very happy.
I will tell him
GOOD. See you Marco.
Ferreri finds the solution.
One woman's trunk is found.
So I will dress. Only the man will be naked.
He said hello by the way.
Bastard
Damn.
Will you accept
Why not?
We should go to Czechoslovakia...
You will do it
You will leave me
Are you in Italy and I'm in Czechoslovakia? This doesn't make sense. We are married
This is the main role. I can't refuse it.
I guess I can't forbid you from doing it...
It means two months apart!
KILL GODARD
Jean-Luc is in Czechoslovakia,
make a movie that hasn't been called Pravda.
I was in Italy...
shooting film Marco Ferreri,
has been called The Seed of Man.
So, do you have a scene?
You go there,
you kiss it
Shut up! Camera!
Turn around!
Pat!
Human Seeds, 24 - 1, first.
Action!
Jean-Luc has called to say that he will come,
He looks nervous.
I can immediately tell He is in a bad mood.
Sorry I'm Miss
Your husband is in your room.
Godard is here!
Tell him that you are very welcome to join us for dinner
But if you prefer to be alone...
We will be very careful.
How are you?
It's been a long time here
What's wrong?
None.
If you just came to sulk...
I didn't say anything.
What is that?
You never entered when I called.
This is weird.
Do you think I'm cheating you?
I don't know
You don't know
I'm sorry...
I'm sorry.
What is your film?
This happens without you.
So slow...
lonely...
But you all look happy.
Yes. Everyone is very jolly set.
Marco always tries to make it fun.
I know the type of cinema.
The place is like a holiday camp.
If only the film is fun to watch!
Which is the actor?
Brown hair, opposite Marco.
Why are you pointing?
Great. That's all we need.
Afternoon, maestro. I am the actor of this film.
It is an honor to shake your hand.
I like your movie.
All of them.
If you need an Italian actor...
I'm here.
Even just to open the door...
Good.
Sorry, I have to go back to another.
I promised to dance with the girl.
That is an honor...
I hope I don't bother you.
Sweating palms, the actor.
So?
Yes, we are done.
Dessert menu
No, do you want something?
There is nothing else thank you
- Can we go? - Yes, please.
The actor... Do you sleep with him?
You don't answer
What you say is disgusting.
I don't understand why.
This is a simple question. You only need to reply.
I notice that you don't.
You are sick.
Right.
We are all.
What do you want me to say?
Actually, that's all.
So you won't be satisfied until I say I've slept with everyone here?
GOOD. Make me crazy.
If you want to kill your dog, says it's rabies
The same old story
You act like a jerk
You are not the man I married.
Well I'm still your husband.
That is important for something.
You also have an obligation for me. You seem to forget this.
What happened to you?
me? Look at you! You look like a young star,
a little floozy
I make a choice.
So no one can tell me anything.
Let's make nonsense with Ferreri's shout.
The camp host
Have fun on your holiday?
Do you really want that?
That's mediocre Ugly film
Your life purpose is fun?
You mix everything.
I'm talking about us. You talk about cinema.
You have gone to the other side.
The other side of what?
I know if I let you go it will end like this
You really are a cliche, my dear.
Actor!
You have turned into a fool, Ordinary little actress.
You have turned me into a jealous loser,
This is very cliché because it's sad.
Stop crying, it sucks.
You women think crying makes you right.
That only makes us sorry for you.
You're the disgusting,
puts us in an impossible situation.
There must be a reason I don't trust you
I'm not crazy!
I don't love you anymore,
there is no magic left,
You no longer try to seduce me,
or someone else
You complain of loneliness,
but you reject the whole world
Of course my fault is that people hate me.
Actually you don't love me anymore,
it's your choice
I'm not sure it's my fault.
I won't let you talk to me like that.
Here it is!
You have found a reason to leave me!
You are like the others.
You match your mind with your actions,
not the other way around.
I have to get up early, I need to sleep.
You can't argue.
You are very cruel and evil.
You are cold
A domestic dispute is like an expression:
There is no obligation to stop.
Every dreaming pair has the last word
"Closing" assigns a destiny to all that has been said.
Disputes occur with this view,
There is no question that every comment must contribute
for the victory of a truth,
only that last word be true
The last roll of the dice is calculated.
Jean-Luc, I'll leave.
For the last word to be truly peremptory,
only suicide is enough.
Jean-Luc didn't die that day at all.
But the Jean-Luc that I love vanished forever.
The attempt to kill himself is too hard an action against me I never forgive him.
We split up almost a year later, while Vent d'Est,
a business in west Maois by the Vertiga Dziga Group.
Jean-Luc wins.
It is a cinema that is managed automatically, no boss,
all decisions are made collectively.
Every morning, in the name of democracy,
the crew held a general meeting
to decide on the afternoon shooting.
So every morning, Jean-Luc is faced with the same dilemma:
respecting the revolution against the cinema,
or make a film contrary to the revolution.
Try to understand him. You are not trying
If you are the only one who maintains it...
No, there is language!
If you decide to use it, you must learn it.
You upset us
We get nuts, we can't pay Indians who have died.
We must! This film must be mentioned Indian genocide
We cannot take shortcuts.
So pay with your money
If you make a decision, you pay.
This tracking shot!
Talk about Indian genocide if you want,
but without all the extras, and nonstop shots!
The revolutionary cinema is still a cinema.
There are no rules that prohibit image tracking.
Especially if you have meaning,
and means revolution.
You don't want to change anything...
You make everyone upset with your tracking shots!
Don't you act like a boss?
No, I feel like I'm the only man...
Yes I myself, because I can see things you can't do.
I understand things you can't do.
At least I have doubts.
We must make a decision now.
You must choose.
Either accept what the majority wants
or continue acting like a boss, which means forgetting revolution.
You have to choose: whether it's politics, or cinema.
GOOD. I will go with the majority.
I'm not sure when I lost the plot.
There is something broken and never the same again.
Maybe so revolution is about.
I killed Godard, I killed Jean-Luc.
But that's how I became myself.
And that is not because I am wrong that I am wrong
I did disappoint many people.
Some feel betrayed,
But you know what?
It doesn't matter in the end,
for that is life aboard Redoutable...
