Review of Contempt (1963) by Nat Z — 24 Dec 2007
You are used to seeing quick snippets, snappy dialogue, and spastic editing from Godard. Not so in "Le Mepris." In this one, his camera slows down to fully appreciate the beautiful sights of Capri (including the stunning Malaparte House).
"Le Mepris" is Godard's tribute to Italian cinema; the opening takes place at historic Cine Citta!
