Synopsis
Jean-Luc Godard's early films revolutionized the language of cinema. Hugely prolific in his first decade - Breathless, Contempt, Pierrot le Fou, Alphaville, and Made in USA are just a handful of the seminal works he directed - Godard introduced filmgoers to the generation of stars associated with the trumpeted sexuality of postwar movies and culture: Brigitte Bardot, Jean Seberg, Jean-Paul Belmondo, and Anna Karina.

Review
'MacCabes's book is in a league of its own this is a rich, rewarding and essential read for anyone seriously interested in the intellectual, cultural and cinematic history of Europe since World War II' Sight and Sound 'What makes this lucid, insightful and generously illustrated book so valuable is that it treats the 'difficult' outings with the same enthusiasm as the nouvelle vague favourites. Deeply impressive' Empire 'Godard fans, practitioners of cinema and anyone interested in the intellectual and artistic life of the second half of the twentieth century should read this important and entertaining book' Observer 'A brilliant biography of the almost forgotten genius of world cinema' JG Ballard, Books of the Year, New Statesman
