Our take
Perhaps one of Jean-Luc Godard and Anna Karina’s most beautiful and loving collaborations, this jewel of the French New Wave contains some of the movement’s most iconic scenes. While it whizzes through Paris, Godard’s fourth film remains a socially conscious and profoundly cinematic artwork.
