    Video, 16:9, clearly edited digitally…this is strange for Godard.

    It’s hard to say from the trailer but he seems to be taking some inspiration from some of the new digital video artists, with the distortion of the video and such.

    I’m sure it will be interesting.

    this looks to make about 1/2 as much sense as ‘La Terza Madre’, and be about 1/4 as much fun. Color me dispirited.
