If you loved Gertrud, try El desprecio
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Theysit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Gertrud, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What El desprecio is
Rome, a yacht, a dismissed screenwriter's typewriter. A film adaptation of The Odyssey falters, a marriage frays, a producer intervenes. Godard critiques the commodification of art with characteristic bluntness.
