Nouvelle Vague

Godard in 1990, had a real problem with this one
it generally works on more master shots than the other works (which often don't establish a space at all)
it just came across as slightly bland, not quite pictorialism, but not far away at times
of course, it could occassionally do something breathtaking, but it just came across as slightly pointless
Godard is clearly trying to alienate the viewer to the extent; the purpose of this (or even the lack?) remains misty
the inexhaustible richness of each scene in fact manages to block thought; there is simply not the time to take most of it in
difficult to say anything was really taken from this experience
