Le Mépris - Totalement Tendrement Tragiquement

This documentary features insights from Godard's former assistant director, Charles Bitsch, who discusses the creation of Le Mépris. It highlights Godard's innovative use of color and his references to antiquity, making it a valuable resource for those interested in film studies.

Godard scholar Alain Bergala offers commentary on Godard's intentions with Le Mépris, suggesting it represents a pivotal moment in film history. According to Bergala, Godard aimed to position Le Mépris as potentially the last 'great' film, focusing on characters as 'instances' such as the young couple, the American producer, and the great German director. This analytical approach provides deeper understanding of Godard's work and its impact on cinema.
