Paris, 1967. Jean-Luc Godard, the maker of "A bout de souffIe", "Le Mépris" and "Pierrot Ie fou", idolized by critics and inteIIectuaIs, is shifting from revoIutionizing cinema to becoming a revoIutionary tout court. lsn't he shooting "La Chinoise", more a poIitical tract in favor of Maoism than an actual movie? His femaIe star is Anne Wiazemsky, writer François Mauriac's granddaughter, sixteen years his junior. Anne and Jean-Luc have been dating since 1966 and they marry this very year. She admires Jean-Luc's originality, inteIIigence, wit and boIdness whiIe he Ioves Anne's freshness and - admiration of him. But May 1968 puts their marriage to the test. Godard, who is more and more invoIved in the revolution, indeed becomes Iess and Iess avaiIable to his young wife, which does not prevent him from acting jealous. lt also looks as if the genius is Iosing his sense of humor. |
