At Last

To see this movie when it screened in Boston, I had to cross a picket line set up by the SLAVES OF THE IMMACULTE HEART OF MARY, the vestiges of a rabid right wing anti-semetic movement headed by the radio personality Father Coughlin (father of hate radio) in the 1930s. It was worth it to see what was arguably Godard's most beautiful film. Like most really smart people, Godard is only about 20% right, but that beats the 2% average for the rest of us. Godard's musings on the Rubrik cube as an arguement for inteligent design are crap, but the tension between Mary's conflicted maternal sexuality and Joseph's subjugated male sexuality are as primordial as the blues and every bit as poetic. The gynocological exam (much more humane in France than the US)that validates her pre-partum virginity throws arguements about physical purity into the pit of absudity where they belong.
The DVD includes The Book Of Mary, a short film by Anne-Marie Mieville which has no direct tie to the Godard film, but but is equally poetic, more lyrical actualy, and sets the mood perfectly for the main attraction.
When I bought this DVD, I also bought a PAL/NTSC all-region DVD player so I could watch it. It was worth the combined price, and having the international DVD player opened a whole range of other DVDs unavialble in the US market |
