Jean-Luc Godard's early films revolutionized the language of cinema. Hugely prolific in his first decade--"Breathless, Contempt, Pierrot le Fou, and Alphaville," are just a handful of the seminal works he directed. Drawing on his own working experience with Godard, MacCabe has written a thrilling account of the French cinema's transformation in his hands.
