Synopsis
Jean-Luc Godard's startling, uncompromising attempt at Revolutionary Cinema marked a new stage in the esthetic evolution of modern cinema's most radical experimenter. Believing that the narrative film - even when modified as in Breathless or Masculine-Feminine - was outdated and bourgeois, Godard loosed a propagandistic audio-visual barrage on the senses which combined Maoism, the Beatles, multiple sound tracks, Minimal Cinema a la Warhol, nudity (accompanied by a Women's Liberation statement), excerpts from Nixon, Pompidou, and the Communist Manifesto. Possibly the director's most disturbing work.
