France/Italy/1963 | Dir: Jean-Luc Godard
Godard’s foray into lush color and CinemaScope moviemaking stars the great Michel Piccoli as a screenwriter caught in a tangle of deceit and ambition between a difficult, demanding director (Fritz Lang), a crude, snarling American producer (Jack Palance), and his disillusioned wife (Brigitte Bardot), as he attempts to doctor the script for an adaptation of Homer’s The Odyssey.
A pillar of the French New Wave, Godard’s cinematography with its sun-soaked settings, dazzling seascapes, and complex color scenes, are spectacularly refreshed in a dazzling new restoration. In French, German and Italian with English subtitles. (104 min.)
“A masterwork…a many-layered odyssey of intelligence and sensuality.” –Phillip Lopate, The New York Times
