Great filmmaker. Very enthusiastic about his films - with the exception of the ones from later years..

Hard to overemphasize the impact of Godard on filmmakers and audiences in the early '60s.  For most people it was Breathless but the first one I saw was Bande a Part (when it was just released) and it rocked my world.  I once drove from Toronto to Montreal to see a Godard film. Like Coltrane he wasn't afraid to move on even if he left his audiences (including me) behind.

I saw one of his later films, Goodbye to Language (2014), in a theatre.  I had no idea what was going on.  I later read that he used two different actresses in the same role.
