Une femme est une femme

Absolutely adored this movie, it just had a really unconventional way of story telling. . I really liked the long pan’s used and the text interfering its emptiness. It had a creative way of editing, especially when the angela and emile argue, then it suddenly cuts to them making out. You fall in love with Angela character, mainly because of her beauty as well as her cute comments at Emile’s expressions. She plays a stereotypical ‘house wife’ character, this emphasised with her cooking the dinner as well as wanting a baby. I really like how Godard has directed this, the costumes, sets, makeup give us an insight of life in France in that time. He used a lot of music to exaggerate some of the narrative ie when the couple are having an argument, loud orchestral music is played in the gaps. The scripting of this movie is amazing, I wish I could get hold of it. French seems like such a pretty language, I really want to learn it now.
