According to Richard Brody, the cinematic philosophy that Godard put forth by 1954 is one that still influences his films today –“there is unity with the filmmaker and the film; the inseparability of both from the social world at large, the credence of a devout moviegoer in the reality of the world as presented in the cinema; and the aesthetic fecundity of this fanatical submission.” To Godard, everything is cinema!
The Jorgensen Guest Lecture will examine the work of Jean-Luc Godard, with a short presentation titled "Why Godard", followed by an interview led by James Naremore, IU Chancellors’ Professor Emeritus in Communication and Culture, English, and Comparative Literature.
