In Praise of Love (film)
In Praise of Love is a 2001 French film written and directed by Jean- Luc Godard.
The black- and- white and color drama was shot by Julien Hirsch and Christophe Pollock.
Godard has famously stated that" a film should have a beginning, a middle and an end, but not necessarily in that order."
This aphorism is illustrated by" In Praise of Love( Éloge de l'amour)," which reverses the order of past and present.
" In Praise of Love" polarized film critics.
While some prominent reviewers were highly negative toward the work, others consider it to be one of the best films of its decade.

Einion ’s fames lies primarily with his metrical grammar, ‘ llyfr cerddwriaeth ’, the earliest of its kind known in Welsh.
