2 or 3 Things I Know About Her
2 ou 3 choses que je sais d'elle
Dir. Jean-Luc Godard, 1967, 87 min, 35mm
In French with English subtitles

Introduced by Michael Witt, professor and author

This screening puts into practice a radical Godardian proposition: a 35mm projection of both Made in USA and Two or Three Things I Know About Her as a single work, their reels and narratives intertwined. One of Godard’s favorite modern authors was William Faulkner, whose work is a recurrent touchstone in his critical writings and films. Faulkner’s novel The Wild Palms famously comprises two distinct alternating narrative strands that illuminate each other. Godard proposed projecting his two very different, then most recent features, which he had shot back-to-back, as an integrated work. Presented here for the first time in the US.
