ENCORE! - Godard's 'Goodbye to Language' says hello to French movie screens
- 10 years ago
Despite not even turning up to the Cannes film Festival, veteran filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard still got to say hello to the jury prize for his film "Goodbye to Language". The oldest director in competition shared the award with the youngest, Xavier Dolan. But unlike Dolan’s film "Mommy", punters here in France can now check out Godard’s 3D 69-minute extravaganza for themselves, as it hits French cinema screens this week.
