One of the high points of the French New Wave, Jean-Luc Godard’s violent, colorful tale of romance stars Jean-Paul Belmondo and Anna Karina in a stylish mash- up of anticonsumerist satire, au courant politics, and comic-book aesthetics. Dissatisfied in marriage and life, a man and his ex-lover take to the road and leave the bourgeois world behind.
