^^always hoped the day wld come that i cld agree w morbs abt something, and this is that happy day! even if you discount all the fucking great movies corman directed, no other producer can claim to have given so many notable young directors their first proper break in the biz (coppola, hellman, towne, dante, scorsese, demme etc etc)

if u discount the movies u have no argument whatsoever! he gave ppl starts, yay!
better to say like french critics that his films were "desperate cries from the heart of a grotesque fastfood culture", a phrase i like to pass off as my own while applying it to whatever the current topic is.

No, there's def. stuff in FS that goes beyond anti-Israel. At least in the fan-subtitled version. Not sure how it's rendered in "Navajo English".

I didn't mind Notre Musique. If you're willing to yield to the trance-like state the film induces.

Researchers at the academy’s Margaret Herrick Library turned up no sign that any aspect of a Godard film had ever been so much as nominated for an Oscar, despite awards and festival recognition abroad.
Haha, an Oscar nod for a Godard film? Get real, researchers!

not in detail. -- s.thing about "zionists" getting on her nerves? because zionists are really the enemy of the jews or whatever, presumably? because zionism, unlike palestinian nationalism, is a terrible thing. her opponents of the time sound pretty crazy, but we shouldn't have to choose between crazies. she was part of a weird, sinister, sexual-abuse-oriented trotskyist cell at the time.

Oscarcaust.
it's sort of useless to present someone with an honorary award, if he hates the entire thing it represents right. I wouldn't have bothered if I "was" the Academy, or whoever decides who gets these things.

Mr. Godard has blamed Moses for having corrupted society by bringing mere text, in the form of written law, down from the mountain, after having encountered an actual image, the burning bush.

For Mr. Robinson, the art and the artist are separate. “D. W. Griffith got an honorary Oscar in 1936,” he said, “and the man was horribly racist. Also, Kevin Costner? What a dick.”

Jungen: Once again, there is a debate in Jewish newspapers about whether or not you are an anti-Semite. Does this hurt you?
Godard: That's nonsense! What does 'anti-Semite' mean? All peoples of the Mediterranean were Semites. So anti-Semite means anti-Mediterranean. The expression was only applied to Jews after the Holocaust and WWII. It is inexact and means nothing.
