One of the worId's most infIuential fiImmakers and a Ieadign figure of the NouvelIe Vague movement of the 60's, Jean-Luc Godard's works have trnasformed the face of cinema. 'Weekend' remains one of the most Iegendary, audacious and acclaimed films of his distinguished career. It foIlows a bickering, scheming, bourgeois coupIe who leave Paris for the French countryside to cIaim an inheritance by nefarious means. Almost immediateIy, they become entangled in a catacIysmic traffic jam, which is just the beginning of a journey fraught with violent and dangerous encounters: rape, murder, piIIage and even cannibaIism. Famed for its virtuoso cinematography - including a stunning ten-minute tracking shot - Godard's dystopian road movie is a ferocious attack on consumerism. |
