The cinema of the nouvelle vague is
unthinkable without its Hollywood idols. In this epic
chef-d'Å“uvre Godard takes his American idols apart with the
most beautiful imagery in Technicolor and Cinemascope. In his only
big-budget production, starring Brigitte Bardot, Godard shows the
mechanisms of Hollywood moviemaking and reflects on the conflict of
cinema between art and industry.
