Here’s another post-New Wave favorite, and one of Godard’s most philosophically inspired works. Marking his only collaboration with Gérard Depardieu, Oh, Woe Is Me fractures Greek myth and the detective tale to question love and spirit in a fallen world. Legends clash and a strange new film is born.
Détective, que en principio debía ser una película de género, nos sitúa en plenos años 80: el periodo de reinvención del cine de Godard. Esta obra cuenta con imágenes tan bellas como si de pinturas se tratase y logra fragmentar las convenciones cinematográficas, forjando nuevas críticas.
From French director Alain Corneau, Fear and Trembling is a critically acclaimed, darkly funny, and winningly perverse comedy about a twisted workplace hell. And in a just world, Sylvie Testud, who won Best Actress at the Césars and the Karlovy Vary Film Festival, would be much better known.
