The cover of a book on Jean Luc Godard by G.P. Ramachandran
Film critic G.P. Ramachandran s book covers the maestro’s politics and the revolutions he brought about
Watching the entire oeuvre of a filmmaker in one go, rather than watching them one at a time over several years, can give one deeper insights into the individual’s style and constant concerns. Especially so, when it is a filmmaker like Jean Luc Godard, whose first film
Breathless came out in 1960, and the latest
The Image Book in 2018.
When film critic G.P. Ramachandran began writing a book on Godard, the first thing he did was to sit down and watch the films one by one.
