I mean, I really loved ‘À bout de souffle’, after all these years, it is still one of my favorite movies but, to be honest, pretty much everything else this guy has delivered was usually seriously hard to digest and this movie was not an exception, I’m afraid. At least, as I grow older, I think I’m slightly more able to understand what he is trying to do. Basically, what Godard tried to do with this movie but also pretty much all his movies, is to completely r” read more
