Compared with the experimental "pure film" in which the objects presented by the lens are completely abstract, "Adieu au langage" at least has concrete scenes and even characters. Sometimes the characters in the dialogue are messy and cut and even bring out a short period of seemingly. The story motivation to develop.
This great artist's "Adieu au langage" may be a horizontal comparison in various fields of art. For example, in the field of music, John Zorn, who uses experimental noise to subvert traditional auditory aesthetics and even science; in the field of painting, for example, the Spanish genius Picasso who "pursed the realm of painting for a 7-year-old child at the age of 70". Then, if Godard is rejuvenating, using video material as plasticine to splice randomly, the audience shows that whether they pretend to be cult or anti-intellectual, they are just a paragraph of letters that can be dispelled in the master's escape game

In "Adieu au langage", Godard reveals the true qualities of "Godard". He wants to use 3D to deconstruct and deny 3D. In fact, he denied everything: spoken language, written language, film language, emotional language, all the signified and signified. He turned the movie into a chaos, and chaos is the most authentic and original appearance of everything. In the movie, he seriously and unscrupulously mixed 3D and 2D, let the dialogue unscrupulously preface without composing words, let the audience see the rough scenery and rough vision: some people doubted whether there is a problem with the 3D glasses, and some people struggled. Think carefully about the meaning behind these expressions. However, he just said in the movie as if under an oath: "I was there just to say'no' and to die." This sounded sentimental.
If you watch Godard with the attitude of watching a Hollywood movie, you can only start to doubt your IQ, but Godard no longer expresses anything through the movie itself. His expression is the act of "making a movie" itself. If the applause is to be dedicated to "Adieu au langage", it is better to dedicate it directly to Godard shooting "Adieu au langage". What the masters play is no longer movies, but performance art. If you consider the source of the quoted clips in the film with a pedantic state, or deliberately discuss the deep meaning of different symbols, you will probably fall into the technical trap of Godard's bad intentions. But if you take the Oriental Zen meaning to the test, Godard's work perfectly matches his age and life experience

"Adieu au langage" says everything but nothing. Perhaps it is the dog that will become the most spiritual observer of the world, or this is the world that belongs to the dog; perhaps, the art of film has come to an end, or it is ushering in an innovation. Like all Godard's masterpieces, the exact meaning of the film is integrated with the following: the exciting ups and downs of light, shadow and sound, urchin-style provocations, and charming philosophies. Thomas Stearns Eliot once wrote: "The end of manufacturing is the beginning of creation", so saying "goodbye" is actually another deconstruction and reshaping of Godard
