Writers: Jean-Luc Godard, Marcel Sacotte
Language: French
The film shows a Parisian woman's descent into prostitution in 12 unconnected chapters. Anna Karina, a fixture in Godard's earlier films and his wife at those times, plays Nana who leaves her husband and child to pursue a career as an actress. As she struggles working as a record store staff she begins life as a prostitute for money.
The characters in the film are quirky and there is no melodrama in the film. The novel like format with chapters is a regular feature in Tarantino's films. Tarantino's production company 'A Band Apart' is named after the Godard classic 'Bande a part'. Godard's playfulness with the camera and ideas reminds me of Tarantino and the impact of their films are also similar.
Rating: 4/5
