Alphaville (Criterion Collection) [DVD]
One of the touchstones of the French New Wave, Godard's classic is a cockeyed fusion of science fiction, pulp characters and surrealistic poetry. Intergalactic hero, Lemmy Caution (Constantine), is sent to the city of Alphaville, which is run by an electronic brain, to rescue a group of scientists imprisoned there. The tyrannical brain has suppressed the people who live there by outlawing love, limiting information and keeping them on mind-numbing drugs. With the help of Natascha (Karina), the daughter of a well-known scientist, Caution tries to get to the heart of the computers grip on the city. Godard achieves a stunningly clinical futurism using absolutely no visual effects.

Petit Soldat
Jean Luc Godard's follow-up to his Nouvelle Vague landmark and debut feature, BREATHLESS, LES PETIT SOLDAT was originally banned in France because of its frank depiction of the Algerian War, which was tearing France apart at the time of the film's completion. Michel Subor stars as Bruno, a hitman under contract by the French government who suddenly develops a conscience and a philosophy when he is ordered to kill a left wing Arab leader. His newfound ideals are provoked by the stunning Veronica (Karina), a young woman who is secretly employed by the Arabs. The two fall in love, and, not surprisingly, Bruno finds it impossible to carry out his mission, bringing down the wrath of the French government on both he and Veronica. Beautifully filmed by Raoul Coutard, LES PETIT SOLDAT is less interested in the mechanics of plot as it is in providing Godard a voice for thoughts and musings on the politics and horrors of the Algerian War.

Carabiniers
A bizarre, surreal, and potent antiwar film, Jean-Luc Godard's LES CARABINIERS is a complex tale of two riflemen who travel the world in the service of "The King." Recruited by two other members of the army, Michel-Ange and Ulysses leave their wives, Cleopatra and Venus, to wander as far as Egypt and the US killing and torturing innocent victims for their unseen leader. Full of the innovative editing techniques and intellectual vigor that punctuates almost all Godard's films, LES CARABINIERS finds Godard playing promiscuously with images and ideas, including favorite preoccupations such as the destructiveness of capitalism, often presenting ideas and opinions that are forgotten almost as soon as they are articulated. Beautiful, complex, fascinating, and frustrating, LES CARABINIERS is vintage Godard.
