“I want to say in the case of Godard of course, you don't have to be told twice to go and see him. I went to see him. I didn't know him at that time.

    FIRST NAME: CARMEN

    JEAN-LUC GODARD France, 1983

    Godard stars as an eccentric filmmaker in this fragmentary love poem from his 1980s period. Loosely based on Bizet’s opera, First Name: Carmen reinvents cinema into elliptical broken rhythms and passages of poetry to renew one of the oldest of tales: that of two lovers on the run.
