LE PHILOSOPHE ET LE CINEASTE ONT EN COMMUM UNE CERTIANE MANIERE D’ETRE, UNE CERTAINE VUE DU MONDE, QUI EST CELLE D’UNE GENERATION.
- JEAN-LUC GODARD
(The vision of the philosopher and the director is the same, and that is the vision of a generation)
This is from one of Jean-Luc Godards later French new-wave films, Masculin Feminin, by far my favourite of his (next to A bout de souffle perhaps)
I first came across this quote when I studied philosophy and film.. so it seemed rather appropriate that the vision of the two had some similarity (Godard often cites existential and Marxist philosophy and political ideals in his work.. as well as an avid knowledge of film history).
