"As You Like It" may be familiar to Godard, who has created great works like "Exhausted", and whatever you want can also describe the state of Godard's film creation at this time. Almost artificially elevated to a philosophical level (of course because their focus has shifted) without losing its ultimate romantic and lyrical character. Its dialogue and designed dialogue scenes are so novel. In the scene of Anna and Paul breaking up in the title, we can only see their backs, or we can only see vaguely in the mirror on the opposite bar; It's so clear and interesting that we can only concentrate on listening to the dialogue and observing the occasional part of it.
There are also many passages with mysterious ambiguous and pleasant moments at the same time. In the pinball room, Anna seduces a young man who is playing pool from time to time. Maybe she is just passing the boring time and having some fun, who knows Woolen cloth! The young man bought her a pack of cigarettes, and Anna turned on the jukebox and improvised a dance. The camera followed her and danced around the table to catch her light gait and cheerful expression. Is she pleasing? Maybe it's just for fun! ?
Few films have produced such a captivating image, and you may find more with a little patience, as it is so rich in just 87 minutes!
