Official selection of the 2010 Cannes Film Festival.
Legendary director Jean-Luc Godard returns to the screen with FILM SOCIALISME, a magisterial essay on the decline of European civilization. As a garish cruise ship travels the Mediterranean (with Patti Smith among its guests), Godard embarks on a state of the E.U. address in a vibrant collage of philosophical quotes, historical revelations and pure cinematographic beauty. Presented with the intentionally vague "Navajo English" subtitles that accompanied the film's Cannes premiere (and subsequent screenings) as Godard insisted.

Simply beautiful film, deliberately unintelligible except to the code talkers capable of translating. Godard shows us that we are at war, not with each other, not with the government but with ourselves, to whom we have ceded all power, will and purpose. The result is confusion, chaos, distortion and detatchment. The question posed is whether European society can survive this invisible and devastating plague which renders its very existence completely barren.
Fluency in French helps but the most important ideas set forth are noted by the subtitles. It's a puzzle worth pondering and a masterpiece of cinema...even if it's not readily apparent on first glance.
Morbid, gruesome, hideous, macabre, monstrous, frightful, pahological, infected, diseaed, under conditions of natual pulchritude, artistry, and refinement. Clever.
