Our take
The “her” is Paris, but it’s also everything: Only Godard could conjure the cosmos in a cup of coffee—which he does in this brilliant, candy-colored provocation. A landmark transition from the maestro’s jazzy genre deconstructions of the 60s to his gorgeous and inquisitive essay films of the future.
