Histoire(s) Du Cinema And Other Works Limited Edition Blu-Ray
Made over ten years at the end of cinema’s first century, Jean-Luc Godard’s roving, essayistic video project is a multilayered celebration of the art form’s achievements, as well as a raging condemnation of its failure to respond and engage with turbulent times. Melding together film clips, newsreel footage, painting, music, as well as Godard’s own narration in a transfixing collage, Histoire(s) du cinéma is a passionate cri de coeur by a cinema icon entering a galvanising late period, of which many other works are included in this release. Marked by searching introspection and bold experimentation, these film and video projects evince a creative spirit continuously engaged with the question of cinema’s place in the world, and the world’s place within cinema – not least in Godard’s moving final film, Scénarios (2024), making here its world Blu-ray premiere.BLU-RAY LIMITED EDITION BOX SET SPECIAL FEATURESAll 8 episodes of Histoire(s) du cinéma, viewable with two optional English subtitle tracks: a narration translation, and annotated subtitles by Felicity Chaplin identifying clips and imagesLettre à Freddy Buache - Godard's anti-film commissioned for the 500th anniversary of the Swiss city of Lausanne (1982)Soft and Hard [Soft Conversation on Hard Subjects] - creative partners Godard and Miéville discuss their work while involved in everyday tasks around their home (co-directed with Anne-Marie Miéville, 1985, 52 mins)JLG/JLG, autoportrait de décembre - Godard’s self-portrait documentary finds the filmmaker questioning his place in cinema history and the end of Western culture (1995)2 x 50 Years of French Cinema - in his documentary in celebration of the centenary of cinema, Godard points the camera at himself (co-directed with Anne-Marie Miéville, 1995)Moments choisis des histoire(s) du cinéma - Godard’s re-edit of Histoire(s) du cinéma on 35mm film reorganises footage and includes unique material (2004) Exposé du film annonce du film “Scénarios” - Jean-Luc Godard presents his idea for a 6-chapter feature film (2024) Scenarios - Godard’s final work (2024)New introduction by Godard expert Michael Witt (2025)New interview with Michael Witt on Godard’s magnum opus (2025)New interview with Godard collaborator Bernard Eisenschitz on the director’s working methods (2025)Extensive archival TV interview with Godard on French programme Bouillon de culture (1993)Limited edition booklet featuring new essays by film writers Sophia Satchell Baeza and Jawni Han, and an essay by Adrian MartinLimited Edition of 5000 copies, presented in a rigid box with full-height Scanavo packaging and removable OBI strip leaving packaging free of certificates and markings
