Jean-Luc Godard demonstrates that he’d never ask Myriem Roussel to do anything he wouldn’t do himself.

Cool still

A number of years back Anna Karina gave an interview where she went on about Godard’s body and how “beautiful” it was.
Hey — she should know!

He looks like he’s kept in good shape. What am I saying? Why are we even having this discussion? Oh yeah, my blog post.

Godard apparently plays regular tennis and he keeps in good physical condition.

Richard Lester’s a tennis enthusiast too, they should get together for a few games.

In a word…YEEUCCH!

If poor Myriem Roussel had even got a decent career out of sleeping with this man, one might just about see the point.
As it stands, all I can do is quote Bette Midler: “Honey, no studio on earth has that much money!”

Watched La Femme Mariee last night with Brent, a serious Godardian. Good movie, and funny! I must get one of those belts that beeps when your posture is awry. It would probably play the theme from Knight Rider when I put it on.

Ooh…I love Une Femme Mariee, I think that’s one of his best.
Love the bits with the negative footage of those girls in the changing rooms. And the ravishing use of framing in that film. Roger Leenhardt’s cameo is also touching.

The negative image makes everyone look like characters in a video game, somehow. Apt, and in a film made before such games even existed.
The subtitle “Fragments of a film” seems to refer as much to the framing as to the editing strategies, since we’re so often conscious of how JLG and Coutard have deliberately excluded much of the scene, isolating details like a radiographer examining suspected fractures.
