...a prototypically useless endeavor from Godard...

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jul 25, 2020

It is this feeling of freedom that pervades the entire film and makes it so exciting, so significant to the true nature of experiencing the full imact of the cinema.

| Feb 5, 2020

A monotonously scratching, capering version of a hack Arthur Freed musical, perhaps the most soporific, conceited, sluggish movie of all time.

| Jun 18, 2019

Analytical whimsy, captivating dissonance

In it's (own very funny) way, the inverting bricolage syntax of A Woman is a Woman is as challenging to comprehend as the allusive consciousness stream of an Eliot poem

| Original Score: 83/100 | Jul 7, 2011

It has a certain smugness about it that has always kept me at a distance from enjoying a Godard film.

| Original Score: C+ | Jul 14, 2008

One of the most enjoyable of all the master's works.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Aug 29, 2006

The result is brash, defiant, gaudy and infinitely fragile.

Godard remains stubbornly experimental, as in the defiant use of set, the chopped-up bits of Legrand's score looming up throughout; still it somehow charms.

You can sing and dance your way through life, but you'll have to do it naked, with men leering at you.

If Jacques Demy had been a sufferer of adult ADHD, he might have made a film very much like Jean-Luc Godard's A Woman is a Woman.

| Dec 27, 2003

A charming document of the great filmmaker's fanciful yet serious dreams for cinema.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 21, 2003

One of Godard's more approachable and enjoyable films, a black-comic tribute to musical romance

| Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 21, 2003

A Woman Is a Woman is fluff, but quelle mousse.

Full Review | Nov 7, 2003

A Woman Is a Woman may not have the urgency or the contradictions that made early Godard an icon, but in its new incarnation, it takes us back to a time when he could still provide the makings of a good argument.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 7, 2003

The most playful film to come out of the French New Wave, it's also the last time Jean-Luc Godard appeared to have any fun.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Sep 5, 2003

A playful experiment.

Une Femme Est une Femme moves us now because it's so playful and the players are so young.
