Review of La Chinoise (1967) by Edgar C — 18 Aug 2011
Political alienation and brain-washing is the center of Godard's improvisatory, "metaflimic" masterpiece that showcases the implications of brainless theoretical fanatism before the stage of finding out that those "clear images" sought won't come out of the blue if such theory is not put into practice. The metaphysical merging of philosophy and alternate thought in the minds of these pretentious students juxtaposed with Godard's metafilm jokes clearly emphasize this point of madness: political sides can be questioned, but true politics are constructed from own actions with clearly defined purposes behind. Marvellous intellectual discussion.
Very, very impressive, Mr. Godard!
99/100.
