Overview

Godard constructs a lyrical study of the cinematic and creative process by deconstructing the story of his 1982 film Passion. “I didn’t want to write the script,” he states, “I wanted to see it.” Positioning himself in a video editing suite in front of a white film screen that evokes for him the “famous blank page of Mallarmé,” Godard uses video as a sketchbook with which to reconceive the film. The result is a philosophical, often humorous rumination on the desire and labor that inform the conceptual and image making process of the cinema.

00:39:45 He began by painting warriors, moved on to men
00:42:20 ...an inner turmoil matching that outside
00:44:36 Possible to... probable, rather
00:46:48 He says... he says he's listening to the music
