I think it's pretty safe to say that Jean-Luc Godard was a bit of a selfish arse, and Louis Garrel captures that really quite effectively here. The film is set in 1967 when French society was being rocked by political upheaval, student demonstrations and where President De Gaulle was at his most unpopular. The thirty-six year old Godard was already an household name and had fallen for his young starlet Anne Wiazemsky (Stacey Martin) who could have been his daughter, and they marry. She adores him - his reputation, his vision, his passion whilst he loves the fact that she is young, beautiful and can be fairly easily twisted around his little finger. As the filming of his film "La Chinoise" proceeds, though, we discover that this relationship might not be much more than puddle deep and his constant search to remain relevant in an ever changing and increasingly hostile environment is taking it's toll on his temperament and his popularity. Many begin to suspect that his latest film - extolling the virtues of ultra-socialism as espoused by Mao is but a gimmick to keep him germane, but it's when his wife gets the chance to travel to Rome to work with Bertolucci and things start to unrave
