Paris, 1967. Jean-Luc Godard, the maker of "A bout de souffle", "Le Mépris" and "Pierrot Ie fou", idoIized by critics and intelIectuaIs, is shifting from revolutionizing cinema to becoming a revolutionary tout court. lsn't he shooting "La Chinoise", more a poIiticaI 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, intelIigence, wit and boldness whiIe he loves 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. It aIso looks as if the genius is losing his sense of humor. |
