More quotes by Jean-Luc Godard
The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. Unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and I try to render this concept in my films. Literature and painting both exist as art from the very start the cinema doesn't.
Jean-Luc Godard
In films, we are trained by the American way of moviemaking to think we must understand and 'get' everything right away. But this is not possible. When you eat a potato, you don't understand each atom of the potato!
Jean-Luc Godard
This new world which is being born is cynical and amnesiac. And it has eliminated perspective.
Jean-Luc Godard
Something that I like in movies, and I dislike too, is that they can't be projected well.
Jean-Luc Godard
I don't think I've succeeded in making any really good films. There are moments, scenes, whole movements that sing. It has all added up to a cinema of sorts, even though I'm still learning my art.
Jean-Luc Godard
I am nowhere. You can call me the man in the middle.
Jean-Luc Godard
People come to Cannes just to advertise their films, not with a particular message. But the advantage is that if you go to the festival, you get so much press coverage in three days that it advertises the film for the rest of the year.
Jean-Luc Godard
Once we know the number one, we believe that we know the number two, because one plus one equals two. We forget that first we must know the meaning of plus.
Jean-Luc Godard
I pity the French Cinema because it has no money. I pity the American Cinema because it has no ideas.
Jean-Luc Godard
Hollywood was invented by hoodlums from central Europe. And today a Hollywood lawyer is not a hoodlum. He's a bureaucrat.
Jean-Luc Godard
It makes me laugh when you bring two things together which have nothing to do with one another.
Jean-Luc Godard
Living, it can be sad too.
Jean-Luc Godard
In the beginning there was not even talking. In movies, there was no need for that. Because it was more evident if there was no talking. Only in sports does there remain this fervor, which can even become violent. There's this desire to see something big.
Jean-Luc Godard
I don't know if I am free because I am happy or happy because I am free.
Jean-Luc Godard
When you are out in the land, OK, you have the land but you are alone with it. And sometimes it is too much.
Jean-Luc Godard
Europe has memories, America has t-shirts.
Jean-Luc Godard
When there's 100 people around you can't really forget yourself.
Jean-Luc Godard
I know that I am old, because even if I think I'm younger than everyone - but that's true - my way of hoping and continuing is that I am always in a younger position than the other one.
Jean-Luc Godard
The cinema is truth 24 frames-per-second.
Jean-Luc Godard
In movies, comedy and tragedy are all the same.
Jean-Luc Godard
