Paris, 1967. Jean-Luc Godard, the maker of "A bout de souffIe", "Le Mépris" and "Pierrot Ie fou", idolized by critics and inteIIectuals, is shifting from revoIutionizing cinema to becoming a revoIutionary tout court. Isn't he shooting "La Chinoise", more a political tract in favor of Maoism than an actuaI movie? His female star is Anne Wiazemsky, writer François Mauriac's granddaughter, sixteen years his junior. Anne and Jean-Luc have been dating since 1966 and they marry this very year. She admires Jean-Luc's originaIity, intelligence, wit and boldness while he loves Anne's freshness and - admiration of him. But May 1968 puts their marriage to the test. Godard, who is more and more involved in the revoIution, indeed becomes less and less availabIe to his young wife, which does not prevent him from acting jeaIous. lt also Iooks as if the genius is Iosing his sense of humor. |
