Godard on Godard is the filmmaker as his own revolution — a collection of essays, manifestos, and interviews written while he was busy reinventing cinema from the inside out. In his words, theory and practice blur: every line is a jump cut, every idea a challenge to authority, narrative, and complacency itself. It’s part diary, part demolition — the blueprint for how to make art that refuses to behave.
