Yes it is. Big time. I remember reading somewhere that Pentagon was screening that movie a few years back to find out why they fucked up in Iraq.
This classic was largly forgotten untill the run up to the Iraq war. It received an art house rerelease with the tag line that the Pentagon has been viewing it in preperation for the Iraq war. Way to intense to see with my wife. I didn't find any friends to go so I didn't see it.
You guys are tripping with Breathless, it's near perfect. And there's a million films that I should've seen but haven't. For example, I've seen like eight Fellini films, but have yet to see 8?? and La Dolce Vita-- I guess I'm holding out for a chance to see them on the big screen. Movies are fun because you can catch up on a lot of stuff within a short period, books on the other hand...
You like Godard, but you don't like these two? Strange. Breathless and Alphaville are the ones by Godard that I really like. Pierrot Le Fou is alright aswell. But Weekend and Le M??pris I didn't like at all.
Hard to believe, but I still haven't seen QUADROPHENIA.
dood.
How are you supposed to know how to act/dance/dress/talk around your mod-60s-star-trek-convention buddies??? This is an uber offense of the highest order in the 'mod community', especially fro someone of your rank and stature. Think of the children.

That reminds me how we tricked this college friend in to watching Godard's "King Lear". We told him "It has Woody Allen in it and you LOVE Woody Allen right? You gotta rent it, it's so HILLARIOUS" oooh and it has Molly Ringwald in it too.. she's GREAAATTT"
