Godard, pour les francophones (without subtitles)

 Rencontre publique avec Jean-Luc Godard  
(the post-screening discussion begins 5 mins 30 secs in)

Thanks to Richard Brody at the New Yorker online, Film Studies For Free heard about the above videoed interview with Jean-Luc Godard. It took place last Friday (June 18), following a screening of his new work Film Socialisme, JLG answered questions for two hours.

It's unsubtitled but full of great moments. So  FSFF figured a quick blog post was in order to ensure that its francophone-Godard-fan readers don't miss the chance to see a quite frail but still brilliantly acute and witty Jean-Luc informing those present that, at the moment, Film Socialisme is indeed his last movie, but that so too, in its time, was A Bout de souffle/Breathless (1959).
