#37 - Two or Three Things I Know About Her (1967, Jean-Luc Godard)

I love me some Godard but this was a mess. I really couldn't tell what it was about. Was it the story of a young suburban housewife working part-time as a prostitute? An experiment about what people really are thinking during day-to-day small talk? An indictment of consumerism? Something to do with Vietnam? There were a lot of big ideas, all just glossed over with no unifying theme. Cinematography was outstanding, however. Still, I dunno... this seems to be the moment Godard loses me. Weekend is an absolute masterpiece though. I still need to see La Chinoise.
