If you continue on wit...Thank you very much Daniel. If you continue on with my Godard reviews, you'll see my opinion almost completely reverse: I'm entering the most contentious period of his career, but I absolutely adored his 7-year run and would not hesitate to call a few of his films all-time favorites now.Jakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09078001374402400232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-494160638739613756.post-3149755210719367882010-08-09T11:54:42.145-04:002010-08-09T11:54:42.145-04:00Jake -- Thanks for your all hard work on this blog...Jake -- Thanks for your all hard work on this blog. Yours has quickly become one of my very favorite movie blogs because you write such insightful commentary and because your taste seems to dovetail with my own, so your archive is filled with reviews of the films I just watched or have in my queue.<br /><br />Regarding Breathless your review here makes me want to revisit this film (which I guess I will when the Criterion blu-ray comes out this fall.) I'm a huge fan of several of the French New Wave filmmakers (Rohmer, Truffaut and Malle especially) but I had the exact same reaction to both this and Band of Outsiders -- deep admiration for certain elements or moments while ultimately being left cold by the films. <br /><br />As such I've been slow to pick up further Godard, although I think I'll be watching Weekend this week.Apronikoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17782118211575759239noreply@blogger.com
