This scathing late-sixties satire from Jean-Luc Godard is one of cinema's great anarchic works. Determined to coIlect an inheritance from a dying reIative, a bourgeois coupIe travel across the French countryside whiIe civiIization crashes and burns around them. Featuring a justly famous centerpiece sequence in which the camera tracks along a seemingly endIess traffic jam, and rich with historical and Iiterary references, Weekend is a surreally funny and disturbing calI for revolution, a depiction of society retreating to savagery, and-according to the credits-the end of cinema itself. |
