Just by those two names you will know if this short interview-film, which has been seen by likely less than a hundred people since it was filmed almost twenty years ago, will be worth to see (and 80's era Godard and Woody no less). Basically, you get Godard's madman sensibilities as a filmmaker, playing around with the structure of a director interview, and you get Woody Allen's insights. Ironically, I think this was made for video, or at least shot on it (maybe it was shot on film, I'd have to look it up), and more than half of the interview is based around the idea (that Godard proposes and Allen agrees with when understanding) that television is a corrupter of the audience. But along with questions, and even more interesting answers, about television, there are also questions and answers about the film-making process, and how Allen feels about it. While at times Godard tries to back up to TV again, one does get of course what Allen is like- immensely underrating his films once finished, and at times finding the film-making process to be more of a distraction from the other horrors of the world. Godard does (and sometimes doesn't) succeed in adding to these words of Allen's with spliced in images from his films, other filmmakers (Orson Welles), and New York city buildings, among other swell oddities. -IMDb user Review by Filmjack3 Ripped by hellboytr [Ripper's notes: This is my fresh rip from the bonus DVD accompanying Centre Pompidou's massive exhibition catalogue "Jean-Luc Dodard: Documents". The DVD has hardcoded French subtitles in the English spoken parts; at the beginning and at the end of the film there are a few minutes where Godard speaks French, which our friend overcat kindly translated into English.] ********************************* FREAKYFLICKS ********************************** Freakyflicks is a free and open community dedicated to preserving and sharing cinematic art in the digital era.

Such high hopes, and then, so disappointed!
This is tedious. The interviewer is more interested in talking about his own ideas than Woody's, and the whole thing is cut together in an arty-farty way, with intermittent random bursts of annoying music that drown out the talk. Ugh. How French. How nauseating.
