Legendary French director, Jean-Luc Godard, has died at 91.
Widely considered one of the finest auteur directors in history, Godard was a founding father of French cinema’s New Wave movement. He rose to prominence through the 1960s following the release of his ground-breaking 1959 film,. Such was the impact of the work that film critic and New York Film Festival founder Richard Roud once opined, “There is the cinema before Godard and the cinema after Godard.
He considered his work the antithesis of Hollywood filmmaking, which he described as being “made mainly by lawyers and agents.” When in 2010 he was awarded an honorary Oscar, he didn’t travel to the ceremony and was dismissive of the accolade. “If the Academy likes to do it, let them do it. But I think it's strange,” Godard said at the time.
was well received at the 1960 Cannes Film Festival, he told a journalist, “I have the impression of loving the cinema less than I did a year ago—simply because I have made a film, and the film was well received, and so forth. So I hope that my second film will be received very badly and that this will make me want to make films again.”
