Summary: "Shifting fluidly from fiction to documentary, from criticism to art, the films of Jean-Luc Godard changed the nature of cinema. Godard's own persona - cultural hero, fierce loner, shrewd businessman - projects similarly shifting images. In the modern canon, he is a figure as mysterious as he is indispensible. Now, acclaimed critic Richard Brody offers the fullest picture yet of Godard's life and work, demsytifying the elusive filmmaker through hundreds of interviews with friends, relatives, and collaborators. He vividly depicts Godard's wealthy family, his changeable and often disturbing politics, his tumultuous dealings with fellow filmmakers, and his troubled relations with women. Tracing an arc from the director's early writing, through his popular success with Breathless and Contempt, to the grand vision of his later years, Everything Is Cinema shows decisively that Godard's films have left their mark on all screens, everywhere. -- BOOK BLURB

Summary: "This volume offers a new interpretation of one of the most innovative directors in the history of cinema. It is the first book to cover the whole of Godard's career, from the early successes of the French New Wave, through the political works of the late 1960s and 1970s and the difficult films of the 1980s, to the recent triumphs of Histoire(s) du cinema and Eloge de l'amour. Drawing on a wide range of literary, filmic and philosophical texts, the book places Godard's work within its intellectual context in France, examining how developments in French culture and thought since 1950 have been mirrored in - and sometimes anticipated by - Godard's films. At the same time, numerous sequences from Godard's films are singled out for close analysis in order to demonstrate how the director's radical approaches to narrative, editing, sound and shot composition have made the cinema into an analytical tool in its own right - a machine for thinking. The book will be useful to all students of Godard's films, and of interest to scholars of modern and contemporary French cinema, culture and thought. " -- BOOK BLURB
