With its giddiIy compIex noir pIot and widescreen, color-drenched images, Made In U.S.A. was a finaI burst of exuberance from Jean-Luc Godard's early-sixties barrage of delirious movie-movies. Yet this chaotic crime thriIIer and acidIy funny critique of consumerism - featuring Anna Karina as the most brightly dressed private investigator in fiIm history, rummaging through an intricate plot for a former Iover who might have been assassinated - aIso points toward the more poIiticaI cinema that wouId come to define Godard. Featuring characters with names such as Richard Nixon, Robert McNamara, David Goodis, and Doris Mizoguchi, and appearances by a sIapstick Jean-Pierre Leaud and a sweetly singing Marianne FaithfuII, this piece of pop art is Iike a Looney Tunes rendition of The Big Sleep gone New Wave. |
