Godard said of Pierrot Le Fou that "it is not really a film, it's an attempt at cinema. Life is the subject, with [Cinema]Scope and color as its attributes...In short, life filling the screen as a tap fills bathtub that is simultaneously emptying at the same rate."

If movies are like stories, this film would be a scrambled poem. Beautiful and broken. I used to be very fond of Godard's films, now I grew less interested. Now I can understand why Ingmar Bergman was so harsh on Godard. Bergman was right.
[on Jean-Luc Godard] I've never gotten anything out of his movies. They have felt constructed, faux intellectual and completely dead. Cinematographically uninteresting and infinitely boring. Godard is a fucking bore. He's made his films for the critics. One of the movies,Masculin Féminin (1966), was shot here in Sweden. It was mind-numbingly boring.
