Speaking of Godard and Rialto… Holy boner city, Christmas is coming early. Jean Luc Godard’s “Breathless” is finally getting the Criterion treatment. As is, Gus Van Sant’s debut “Mala Noche” (which Rialto recently brought back to repertory theaters) AND Terrence Malick’s “Days of Heaven,” masterpiece. Cineastes are currently running to the bathroom to jerk off in massive anticipation. I think I will join this nerd circle-jerk. If the Rialto/Criterion mutual admiration society symbiosis continues, expect to (hopefully) see the return of Godard’s “Two or Three Things I Know About Her” and Jean-Pierre Melville’s crime noir, “Les Dolous.”
Criterion rightfully says, There was before “Breathless,” and there was after “Breathless.” Jean-Paul Belmondo and Jean Seberg: greatest cinematic pair ever? Top 10 fer sure…
