Cinema Wednesdays - Special edition: Tribute to Michel Piccoli - Loris S. Musumeci
Ucolossus of cinema history, made by a colossus. Jean-Luc Godard was subversive; he has remained so. Even if his cinema, in this case Contempt, has entered the category of classics. Either decried and mocked, or admired and adored, this film has been the talk of the town since its release in 1963. And rightly so, for in a day when the subversive has become something of a norm, it's very easy to see why. bon chic bon genre, very conventional, Contempt always surprises. He annoys, then he surprises. He surprises, then we love him.
