In Slow Works , except for playing politics - but in reality are we talking about something else? - We do not practice the positive criticism. Never easy to say why we like a book, a movie, but better, in our view, to devote all his time and energy à s'y employer. C'est pourquoi, dans le seul intérêt de nos lecteurs, nous serons très brefs: éviter de toute urgence Jean-Luc Godard, Tout est cinéma , la nouvelle biographie sur Jean-Luc Godard, due à Richard Brody, un journaliste du New Yorker et dont c'est la première parution en librairie. Le titre friserait déjà le contresens, pour un ramassis fastidieux de commérages et de ragots que nul ne devrait s'abaisser à commenter, d'invraisemblables et péremptoires procès d'intentions avec l'obsession obscène et réductrice de privatiser les raisons d'être et les contenus des films, jamais l'ombre d'une analysis of what the filmmaker has actually invented - so check on it None better than Godard or Godard work of Alain Bergala for example, or the writings of Godard himself (1) ! - All on more than seven hundred pages. Better keep her time and money to acquire and read - or read twice - Jean-Luc Godard biography of Antoine De Baecque (Grasset, 2010), already reported, for example here otherwise thorough and real documentary about this half-century of cinema with Godard we cross (2) .
Do not believe that this assessment is the result of a simple French passion, like, not touch my filmmaker! Others have unmasked the hoax site, long before us. One need only read English , or settle for the automatic translation easily provided - in two stages, however - by the Google to take stock of what could be also received the American release. And just want to suggest to the author, from where we are and fifty years after Michel Poiccard in Breathless : "If you do not slow down, if you do not work, fuck you!"
1. Alain Bergala: None better than Godard Collection Tests / Cahiers du cinema, 1999, and if you like, in addition to the extraordinary literature, fine art books, Godard at work / Years 60 , Cahiers du Cinema, 2006 - The same author also found, after that, collector of Narbonne in 1968 at John Belfond, publishing two volumes of texts filmmakers Jean-Luc Godard Jean-Luc Godard , Publishing de l'Etoile / Cahiers du Cinema, 1985, and Cahiers du Cinema, 1998.
2. As for what we call our desire for constructive criticism, that's where someone who looks lowers write on a topic that does not live in love: "Our Music is a rant that has the appearance a meditation, a work of prejudice and insults disguised as a quiet reflection, a work venomous disguised as farce. " So that the guise of anti-Semitism Richard Brody murders, page 737, one of the greatest films of Jean-Luc Godard (2004), so that with its three central protagonists Jews, an interpreter - prick up their ears to such characters since Contempt - and two beautiful portraits of women, it is precisely the richest and most nuanced on the issue.
