Janette Rallison

Godard : A Portrait of the Artist at Seventy

Colin MacCabe


  Godard : A Portrait of the Artist at Seventy  Colin MacCabe  Book Description Jean-Luc Godard's early films revolutionized the language of cinema. Hugely prolific in his first decade-- Breathless, Contempt, Pierrot le Fou, Alphaville , and Made in USA are just a handful of the seminal works he directed--Godard introduced filmgoers to the generation of stars associated with the trumpeted sexuality of postwar movies and culture: Brigitte Bardot, Jean Seberg, Jean-Paul Belmondo, and Anna Karina. As the sixties wore on, however, Godard's life was transformed. The Hollywood he had idolized began to disgust him, and in the midst of the socialist ferment in France his second wife introduced him to the activist student left. From 1968 to 1972, Europe's greatest director worked in the service of Maoist politics, and continued thereafter to experiment on the far peripheries of the medium he had transformed. His extraordinary later works are little seen or appreciated, yet he remains one of Europe's most influential artists. ...  книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин Book Description Jean-Luc Godard's early films revolutionized the language of cinema.
