Masculin Féminin

celestenorth

¿Qué significa ser joven y libre? Godard presenta a los jóvenes de París en los 60's y es inevitable buscar las similitudes con nuestro entorno. Con una estructura lúdica donde brinca de la historia a la crítica y de regreso. Una de las películas más encantadoras de Godard.

It speaks to the boiling down of media & information to define ourselves as individuals. The act of polling becomes a dry method of understanding our behavior, the same way the films we see often fail to reflect our real lives. But here, Godard shows us the human side; Men, forever hunting for the answers, and women, withholding them, as if they know already. Condemning apathy and romanticizing a philosophical quest

I sure do love Jean-Pierre Léaud's eyebrows in this film . . . Anyway, Godard's women are as superficial as ever in this film, but I liked it overall (meh) and I thought it had some interesting ideas behind all its artsy-fartsy fluff.

If Masculin Feminin does have anything to say, it is certainly not with political messages. Rather it presents the cacophony of fleeting feelings, ill-thought out ideas and ever-changing ideals that are present in the minds of all teenagers. This film has no political messages, only political characters.

Duncan Gray

One of Godard's most inventive experiments. I love its energy and structure, the way it ricochets around as the characters fumble through a stylish, chaotic decade. The chief problem is Godard's near-total lack of charity: all that's missing for this to be a masterpiece is a warmth or at least a greater understanding for the young people he'd rather parade as shallow. And I still wish he trusted women more.

The misogyny is certainly here in this polemic. Marxist men and women checking their hair. C'mon! Why don't you just stack the deck against them?

The organic evolution of dialogue, with its unique beats and semi-improvised execution, adds another level to Godard's discursive cinematic traits. One of his finest.

Lynch/Fellini

Godard's film has some wonderfully surreal moments. But what makes this film so special is its heart, and the yearn to tell this story of love, loss, and relationships!
