Comments on: The New Wave at war http://jessicarulestheuniverse.com/2008/05/29/the-new-wave-at-war/ Twisted by Jessica Zafra - Pumping irony since 1994 Fri, 21 Nov 2008 13:56:02 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: aketchability http://jessicarulestheuniverse.com/2008/05/29/the-new-wave-at-war/#comment-36178 aketchability Sun, 01 Jun 2008 02:53:06 +0000 http://jessicarulestheuniverse.com/2008/05/29/the-new-wave-at-war/#comment-36178 Interesting how other directors really didn't like Godard. Found this quote by Bergman "I've never got anything out of (his) movies. They have felt constructed, faux intellectual and completely dead. Cinematographically uninteresting and infinitely boring. Godard is a f**ing bore." That's coming from someone who made freaking depressive films. I like Godard's Weekend although I'm not a fan of his.. mostly because I don't really get his films. Truffaut I would watch anytime. Love his 400 Blows.. I wonder how a film would turn out if all those french new wave directors had collaborated.. better yet.. throw in the surrealist directors like Bunuel, german expressionists, and italian realists. It probably wouldn't make sense at all... but it's fun to imagine it. *just a sidenote: I just read the book Zeroville by Steve Erickson.. a must read novel for film buffs.

But of course, she doesn't have this French guy's style. I bet if I circulate this letter (edited, of course) at the office my coworkers would recognize her. Unfortunately they would also recognize who circulated it. This Jean Luc sounds like my boss’s wife, who incidentally also owns half the company.
