I don't know, but it just has a "high sense"

The madman Pierrot, to be honest, at least I didn't see it thoroughly. To be honest, it does have a "high-level sense" even if I don't understand it.

This is the first time I've seen a Godard film, and personality is the label of the author's film director. The camera only focuses on one person when two people are talking; the rap-like dialogue narration; the context is definitely not very connected; and there is the music on and off.

I didn't understand it, and because its plot is so simple, it seems to be a bit similar to "Exhausted". Movies aren't so much about telling stories, what is it about? Is it the less conventional film structure that Godard has been doing?

I didn't understand the movie, and probably most people didn't either. But a few images kept popping up in my head, and it seeped into my head, an unforgettable movie. I didn't understand it, but there was a voice in my heart that was shouting "This is not a bad movie!".

    It seems to be out of touch with the French New Wave. . So far I haven't found a New Wave thing that I particularly like. .

    Don't look at how the madman Pierrot knew how beautiful the fireworks at the end were, and how he knew how much Godard loved Karina. It was the long love letter he wrote to her that spread throughout the summer. You see Belmondo's face is confused, he can only watch her run freely. She is the wind of the south, the comet that refuses to go out, the stationery that is still wet.

Pierrot le Fou quotes

  • Samuel Fuller: Film is like a battleground. There's love, hate, action, violence, death... in one word: emotion.

  • Marianne: What are you doing?

    Ferdinard: [looking at the mirror] Looking at myself.

    Marianne: And what do you see?

    Ferdinard: The face of a man who's driving towards a cliff at 100 km/h.

    Marianne: [turns the mirror towards herself] I see a woman who is in love with the man who's driving towards a cliff at 100 km/h.

    Ferdinard: So let's kiss.
