SUBLIME CINEMA #620 - BREATHLESS
Godard just passed away. I was never the biggest fan, but I was absolutely an admirer of his sense of anarchy, his film criticism, his place in history and the new wave that he helped usher in. He was a living legend. He existed entirely on his own terms; the work was without compromise, and he was so stubborn about his aesthetic that his movies at some point became unwatchable.
Still, he made some gems. Vivre Sa Vie, Breathless, Weekend, Le Petit Soldat, Contempt.. I even have a soft spot for Goodbye to Language in 3D. But it was Breathless in particular which helped to change film language - this is easily one of the most influential and radical films ever made.
RIP, adieu
