Une histoire d’eau (1961, Fran?ois Truffaut and )

By Andrew Wickliffe on Aug 6, 2019 From The Stop Button

Une histoire d?eau has a sense of humor, which ought to do it some favors, but none of the humor connects. The short, which co-director Truffaut apparently intended to be a romance, is instead this rushed, peculiar? blathering would be the best word for it, I think. D?Eau is about college student Ca...

Jean-Luc Godard Quotes:

Narrator: How do you render events? How to say or show that at 4:10 p.m. that afternoon, Juliette and Marianne came to the garage where Juliette's husband works? Right way, wrong way - how can one say exactly what happened? Of course, there is Juliette, her husband, the garage. But are these the words and images to use? Are there no others? Am I talking too loud, looking too close?


Narrator: Objects exist, and if we pay them more attention than we do people, it is because they exist more than those people. Dead objects live on. Living people are often dead already.


Narrator: There is increasing interaction between images and language. One might say that living in society today is almost like living in a vast comic strip.
