Finally, some harder to locate Godard titles...
|
Thanks to the reviewer who gave us the titles in the box set--a strange bit of information for Amazon to leave out. Of the three listed Godard films I've only seen "First Name Carmen." A quick synopsis: Two Parallel Stories (1)a quartet rehearsing Beethoven; (2)a group of film makers robbing a bank to produce their film.
Godard utilizes Bizet's "Carmen" as a palet to weave the art of cinema with various other fields of art (music, painting, sculpture--notice the way Godard films the human body, take a look at some of Rodin's sculptures and you'll see what I mean--sorry I can't explain it better). Godard's emmulates the mechanics of the string quartet and it's various parts coming together to make one whole body, in this case Godard's film. There's Godard using Cinema as Art, of course, the common mantra that drives his ouevre, but what sets this film apart from many others is, as stated earlier, he bounces Cinema off of Art, rather than as Art, resulting in the provacation of how Cinema relates with Art.
I've not seen the other two films, so my apologies for not writing two more pretentious reviews. Even though I have not seen the other two films, I give the set five stars simply because it's Godard. |
