Éloge de l'amour (In Praise of Love), dir. Jean-Luc Godard, Switzerland / France 2001, French with English subtitles, 94 min.
Shot alternately in black-and-white 35mm and fauvist digital colour, Godard began the 2000s with this densely layered exploration of love, resistance and betrayal.
In its first half set in Paris a young artist prepares a project on the four stages of love - meeting, physical passion, arguments and separation, making up. In the second half, set two years before, the same man visits an aging couple who have taken part in the resistance.
