Les Malheurs d'Émile Cohl(2021)
"Les Malheurs d'Émile Cohl" shows the ravages of time on the copy of the film "Les Chapeaux des belles dames" which Émile Cohl shot in 1909. Slowing down the most damaged parts of the film from the father of the animation, Gérard Courant has succeeded in creating an object with abstract shapes and, paradoxically, in giving another life to Cohl's work." --Courant

The Image Book(fr)
In Le Livre d’Image, Jean-Luc Godard recycles existing images (films, documentaries, paintings, television archives, etc.), quotes excerpts from books, uses fragments of music. The driving force is poetic rhyme, the association or opposition of ideas, the aesthetic spark through editing, the keystone. The author performs the work of a sculptor. The hand, for this, is essential. He praises it at the start. “There are the five fingers. The five senses. The five parts of the world (…). The true condition of man is to think with his hands. Jean-Luc Godard composes a dazzling syncopation of sequences, the surge of which evokes the violence of the flows of our contemporary screens, taken to a level of incandescence rarely achieved. Crowned at Cannes, the last Godard is a shock film, with twilight beauty.
