What's your favourite Jean-Luc Godard movie and why?
"Les Mepris" because it's better than the others. Godard isn't as good as Vittorio De Sica, Visconti, Bresson, Cassavetes, or Bergman, though.. I could think of another two dozen better directors.
I generally don't enjoy Godard's films, but I thought Contempt and Pierrot le fou were alright. Alphaville had some interesting concepts, but due to my misophonia I had to mute the film as the voice of the computer was driving me insane. I have yet to watch Breathless.
Pierrot le fou. Something about the whole package for me works better than other Godard films, but they're all brilliant.
Weekend. Think of it as comedy and it just works.
Contempt definitely
The greatest to have ever picked up a camera. Love you JLG. RIP, sir.
He's finishing 2 more movies right now. The guy just doesn't stop. Amazing.
he *should* stop!
Anyone can make a movie. Not everyone can make a good movie. Godard made some famous films. The rest of his films are self-indulgent garbage, including the new ones
Truly!

1. Pretty much "anyone" can do "anything." Saying that anyone can make a movie is simply not worth saying.
2. Godard is definitely not "everyone," as he has made at least a couple good films during his career.
3. The way in which you say that he "made some famous films" makes it sound like you think his film are only popular and not quality cinema, which is foolish.
4. "Self-indulgent" is not an inherently negative quality for a film or filmmaker to posses.
5. Honestly, I'm not even sure what you mean by "self-indulgent." It is too vague a criticism to carry any real value in itself, without you explaining further why the supposed "self-indulgence" is indeed bad.
Well he stopped today...
Only this channel can come up with the rarest of the rarest gems like these.
Thanks for the upload 😊
RIP Jean-Luc. IMO one of the 3 most influential directors in cinema, along with Griffith and Welles
Rest in powerful peace Jean-Luc Godard🙏

Nice interview. I particularly don’t enjoy Godard”s movies but enjoy interviews with intelligent people like him
I think the great Dick Cavett...has been the most intelligent, empathic and clever interviewer of all time on tv and is a justifilable legend!.. : ) Hats' off to you Dick... amazing job.. : )
Thank you Jean
Your Work Is TIMELESS
Wow DC is quite different than usual, he seems quite nervous interviewing Goddard. How come so short? He’s one of the true artists
These are absolutely gold.
Genius
you sarcasm is delicious!!
@@Marcel_Audubon I like Godard lol
@@marshallbarrows5626 🤣😂🤣staying in character like that ... pure comic genius!!
the man who put independent cinema to the global map
no
Jean-Luc Godard🌷
Always fun to watch directors talk about their own work… for me due respect to JLG but Melville Chabrol Resnais will be the greats of that era
Godard himself would probably agree.
All superb. I would also include Malle, Truffaut and Varda. But, Godard was indeed an essential pioneer. Imho.
@@waynej2608 All of what you say is fine, but Godard was a real jerk to Agnes Varda not too long ago. She went to his house and he wouldn’t come to the door. He had instead left an insulting note written on the glass that so upset her. All captured on video and on TH-cam of course. I appreciate what he did for us with film and enjoyed that he had Dick a bit off kilter in these interviews. But he made Agnes Varda cry and that upset me. RIP to both of them. Maybe she now gets to have that conversation he denied her then. Isn’t it pretty to think so?
I never got why this guy was such a big deal, because he found a new way to edit? I love cinema but his movies are so dull.
Is this channel ever going to show Dick Cavett shows where he interviews Jackie Gleason and/or Art Carney? I don’t have the Decades channel.
have nothing against the other celebs that were on this show but is this channel ever going to show the Dick Cavett shows where he interviews Jackie Gleason or Art Carney? How about any Honeymooners actors that were part of the main cast? These are rarities much like these.
My personal list of Holy Trinity of Filmmakers
1. Jean Luc Godard
2. Stanley Kubrick
3. Martin Scorsese
4. Alfred Hitchcock
5. Roman Polanski
Does trinity not mean 3 yet there are 5 here? Great directors all the same
"Isn't one and only, like one ............ and only?" - Jack Black
I have never liked the cinema of Godard, Tarkovsky, Kieslowski and Parajanov! Very dry and dull cinema without stories and without excitement! In my opinion, masterpieces like exorcist or legends of the fall or terminator or god father will not be repeated!
@@iranforever1566 yes and cinematography of Pretty Woman, now that’s a film right there!
Orson Welles, if only he got to make what he wanted and how he wanted.
Well that held up lol
These kind of intelligent programs don't seem to exist anymore
They exist here.
Now we have celebrities appearing for hot chilli eating competition
Society could do with this type of show again, badly. A chat show with serious substance and not just Mc Donald's for the brain🍔🍟
I agree, but I don't think there are enough good guests to make a good show. We're only as good as the people, and all I see is junk.
But their goal is to make brainless ziombies not thinkers
@@pale_saint Yeah, they'll always be like that, but OUR goal should be to teach each other, spread good art, spread good ideas, challenge each other respectfully and raise the standards.
@@jimmorrison2692 Excellent point. I'd say having guests like Jim Morrison would be what we're talking about, here. I believe that Jim was a fan of Godard, too. 👍
Jean Luc Picard?
This movie is wacky in all the best ways
Never saw a Goddard movie I liked (including Breathless)
strange you watched this then really
@@burgesssam I didn't, dullard. I'm subscribed to Cavett.
Okay ... like for God's sake okay why are u so upset going through the comments and declaring your opinion
@@Marcel_Audubon 🐈⬛🐈⬛raŕrrr
well, its always a hit or miss with godard. either you like him or not, there's no middle ground.
I have never liked the cinema of Godard, Tarkovsky, Kieslowski and Parajanov! Very dry and dull cinema without stories and without excitement! In my opinion, masterpieces like exorcist or legends of the fall or terminator or god father will not be repeated!
Michael Bay on the other hand, now there’s an auteur!
@@pale_saint Really ??? Oh my god What an honor to chat with Michael bay
@@pale_saint sorry where are you from??
Ah yes, How did we forget Maestro Bay.
I AM ASHAMED TO SEE A FELLOW IRANIAN SO HILARIOUSLY OUT OF TOUCH WITH ARTISTRY AND SO MADLY IN LOVE WITH EXCREM***
