The other day I bought Godard's Une Femme est Une Femme (A Woman Is A Woman), so I thought I'd put up some screenshots, as Anna Karina looks gorgeous as usual! 

The film is a semi-musical that tells the story of a stripper named Angela and her attempts to convince her boyfriend to have a baby with her. It's all out Godard fun, if that's your sort of thing. In my opinion Godard is god. He is amazing, groundbreaking, funny, intelligent, and much more.  So here's some quotes from the man himself...

Photography is the truth. Cinema is the truth twenty-four times per second.

A story should have a beginning, a middle, and an end...but not necessarily in that order.

All you need for a movie is a gun and a girl.

To be or not to be. That's not really a question.

I don't think you should feel about a movie. You should feel about a woman. You can't kiss a movie.
