Godard, seul le cinéma

“He did everything, and the opposite too,” is the mysterious description of Jean-Luc Godard, himself a master of enigmatic one-liners, that he loved to incorporate into his films. Godard is cinema. We hate him as much as we worship him. What created this aura? The director continuously reinvented himself, thereby unavoidably destroying his past self. "I am a positive man who always assumes the negative.”
