Two or Three Things........,
By Mr. H (Essex, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Two Or Three Things I Know About Her... [DVD] (DVD)
Two or Three things is Godard's "sociological fable", and amounts to a whole load of Wittgensteinian philandering with syntax and other oddly beautiful philosophising. At times it seems little more than an act of intellectual onanism; Godard venting his concerns in phrases of interminable length. However,the sheer beauty of the piece on the whole and the genuinely bracing brilliance with which Godard whispers and composes makes it a definite contender for one of the greatest films of Europe in the 60's, if not all cinema. Particularly noteworthy is Coutard playing the prestidigitator and wrangling thoroughly bewitching images from the most inauspicious things.

Some undeveloped toughts on the film and the West,
By Pablo Martin Podhorzer "Movie Critic, Sociolo... - Published on Amazon.com
2 or 3 things I know about her: my reactions1. The city has not lost significance. The reverse is true: its significance has been artificially strengthened to conform to a new kind of commercialism: the reification of the non-physical manifestations of "post"-modern lifestyles. The city is now a Disneyland of its own former self plus all the imagined characteristics attached to it. Like I tought of before: what happens in Paris in the `60s is what happens in Bs. As. Only on the `80s or later. 2. Electricity and water: true, so true. But what we need is not in fact to forget the cost of things and use them as if they're free? To think about this kind of price all the time would make us crazy isn't? 3. The distribution of the city, Paris: well, we are seeing the results (2005 riots). 4. The colors and the play with them: the sixties look wonderful, so clean and so proper to human living: must have been a shock the intrusion of concrete at the same time of that colorful environment in clothes and artifacts. Now the concrete turns classic into browns and pseudo-old stuff (retro) and the clothes are more of a faded mode: maybe the fabrics are more important now. 5. The middle-low class woman prostituting: now they're the secretaries and so of the corporate world: the legal prostitutes, with their consent. 6. Camera movements and mise-en-escene: perfect in every frame. 7. The disconnection with the world and with others: crushing objectivity and isolated subjectivity: in the movie redention is possible; to transcend the frontiers language produce to my world (as in Orwell). I'm not so sure: the intent of the film when Godard doubts about the significance of words and how they are generated is to well for the `60s but passé after the fiasco of post-modernist tought: reality is back in social science. Anyway: the intent to redefine and show "a conversation" in cinema is utterly interesting, I feel engaged when I see this on screen. 8. A less educated girl at the beauty parlor: the technique os "semi-interview" is used, like in other Godards: we cant listen to the questions, only to the answers. The girl is so typical of her class: now she would be the same, but "liberated" of the need to acquire culture, call it Western or "high" or of the dominators: now capitalists have produced the illusion that they're free, that the low classes can have "their" culture and is all the same, all is valid: the result: no more critical books, no more critical cinema, no more critic, only big cars and prostitutes and garbage hip-hop: no Beatles here, where pop could be art. Popular now is only the filthy remains of culture's process of production for the masses. 9. How to show something that happens: the garage sequence. Interesting, but more for the film scholar, the interested in the problem of representation. Not for me, not now.
