Happy day

One of my all-time favorite movies, Godard's "Masculine Feminine", is being rereleased. I must have seen this ten times when I was in college. It was everything I wanted: cool, mid-sixties, revolutionary yet recognizing the influence of pop culture (this film is the origin of the remarkable phrase "the children of Marx and Coca-Cola" to describe the 60s generation), and best of all, set in Paris. How I longed to be part of that world!

Other favorite Paris films:

  • Last Tango in Paris
  • Charade

  • Diva

  • Frantic
