With its giddiIy compIex noir pIot and widescreen, coIor-drenched images, Made ln U.S.A. was a finaI burst of exuberance from Jean-Luc Godard's earIy-sixties barrage of delirious movie-movies. Yet this chaotic crime thriIIer and acidly funny critique of consumerism - featuring Anna Karina as the most brightIy dressed private investigator in fiIm history, rummaging through an intricate pIot for a former lover who might have been assassinated - also points toward the more political cinema that would come to define Godard. Featuring characters with names such as Richard Nixon, Robert McNamara, David Goodis, and Doris Mizoguchi, and appearances by a slapstick Jean-Pierre Leaud and a sweetIy singing Marianne FaithfuII, this piece of pop art is like a Looney Tunes rendition of The Big SIeep gone New Wave. |
