mine, mine! it was my first godard film and i saw it on a dingy "cine club"-- i laughed my motherfucking ass off so hard. their postcards-- the ersatz reality they live-- fucking brilliant.

i do prefer alphaville though, obvious as it is now after many years, and the gorgeousness of "le mépris" (i dont mean a naked bardot, though that helps, but the beautiful compositions and the color and fucking fritz lang in it and the whole ulysses thing). but i digress-- shit like "prénom carmen" did nothing for me, mainly because i had seen before carlos saura's "carmen" which was way way way fucking better.
