Review by Library Journal Review

Antiestablishment filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard puts his unmistakable stylistic stamp on a chain of vignettes focusing on restless Parisian youth. Jean-Pierre L?aud (The 400 Blows) stars as one of "the children of Marx and Coca-Cola" pursuing a young pop singer. The frequently off-putting Godard is relatively accessible in this once-provocative outing. For serious collections. (c) Copyright 2010.
