Jean-Luc Godard
Jean-Luc Godard (born 3 December 1930) is a French-Swiss film director, screenwriter and film critic.
He rose to prominence as a pioneer of the 1960s
French New Wave film movement.
During his early career as a film critic, Godard criticized mainstream French cinema's "Tradition of Quality", which emphasized established convention over innovation and experimentation.
In response, he and like-minded critics began to make their own films.
Many of Godard's films challenge the conventions of traditional Hollywood in addition to French cinema.
In 1964, Godard described his and his colleagues' impact: "We barged into the cinema like cavemen into the Versailles of Louis XV."
He is often considered the most radical French filmmaker of the 1960s and 1970s; his approach in film conventions, politics and philosophies made him arguably the most influential director of the French New Wave.
Along with showing knowledge of film history through homages and references, several of his films expressed his political views; he was an avid reader of existential and Marxist philosophy.
Since the New Wave, his politics have been much less radical and his recent films are about representation and human conflict from a humanist, and a Marxist perspective.
In a 2002 "Sight & Sound" poll, Godard ranked third in the critics' top-ten directors of all time (which was put together by assembling the directors of the individual films for which the critics voted).
He is said to have "created one of the largest bodies of critical analysis of any filmmaker since the mid-twentieth century."
He and his work have been central to narrative theory and have "challenged both commercial narrative cinema norms and film criticism's vocabulary."
In 2010, Godard was awarded an Academy Honorary Award, but did not attend the award ceremony.
Godard's films have inspired many directors including Martin Scorsese, Quentin Tarantino, Brian De Palma, Steven Soderbergh, D. A. Pennebaker, Robert Altman, Jim Jarmusch, Wong Kar-wai, Wim Wenders, Bernardo Bertolucci, and Pier Paolo Pasolini.
From his father, he is the cousin of Pedro Pablo Kuczynski, former President of Peru.
He has been married twice, to actresses Anna Karina and Anne Wiazemsky, both of whom starred in several of his films.
His collaborations with Karina—which included such critically acclaimed films as "Vivre sa vie" (1962), "Bande à part" (1964) and "Pierrot le Fou" (
1965)—were called "arguably the most influential body of work in the history of cinema" by "Filmmaker" magazine.

Initially titled "Tentative de bleu" and "Image et parole", in December 2016 Wild Bunch co-chief Vincent Maraval stated that Godard had been shooting the film for almost two years "in various Arab countries, including Tunisia" and that it is an examination of the modern Arabic world.
Godard told "Séance" magazine that he was shooting without actors but the film would have a storyteller.
It was selected to compete for the Palme d'Or at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival.
Although it did not win the official prize, the jury awarded it the first "Special Palme d'Or" in the festival's history.
According to Godard, the film is intended to be shown on TV screens with speakers at a distance, in small spaces rather than in regular cinemas.
It was shown in this way during its first run at the Théâtre Vidy-Lausanne in November 2018.
