“BARDOT+ GODARD = MOVIE GREATNESS.”
—Time Out New York

“Has the glow of greatness … An acid satire, an act of worship … Sports the nimbleness of comedy, strolls defiantly in the direction of the tragic … Why this should break the heart I have no idea, but it does.”
—The New Yorker

“The greatest work of art produced in post-war Europe.”
—Sight & Sound

Perhaps Jean-Luc Godard’s most accessible film, but don’t hold that against it. It’s still an eerily gorgeous, sneakily angry work of cinema about cinema. Fritz Lang stars as himself, undertaking an adaptation of Homer’s Odyssey in Capri as the various crew members and the terrifying American producer (Jack Palance) swirl around. With Brigitte Bardot, Michel Piccoli, and the music of Georges Delerue.
