Two or Three Things I Know About Her Reviews

Godard forswears the forces of sympathy and audi¬ ence participation, which are perhaps forms of fear, but this does not keep him from a furious pity and expressiveness.

Though the film's intention is clear, it doesn't hinder its poetry. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 8/10 | Apr 6, 2023

Godard forces the audience to engage with film as a medium purely on his terms. It's an uncomfortable yet deeply satisfying exercise.

Full Review | Original Score: 5/5 | Nov 16, 2011

The pinnacle of Godard's art. Probing, uncertain, hesitant, humble, lyrical and profound

| Original Score: 93/100 | Aug 5, 2011

a wide-ranging cinematic essay that may seem scattershot and abstract on first viewing, but rewards more and more with each repeated experience

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Sep 7, 2009

From now on, Godard's films will become film essays and then cine-tracts. 2 or 3 Things I Know About Her is the dividing line.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Jul 27, 2009

A marvel that equals anything in Godard's 1960s output.

| Original Score: 10/10 | Jul 25, 2009

The dualities that abound in Jean-Luc Godard's 2 or 3 Things I Know About Her are ubiquitous at whatever starting point one chooses.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jul 20, 2009

It's a vexing film that teases with sex and serves up radical politics. But it has extraordinary alchemical powers, turning the most ordinary environment -- a young couple's suburban flat -- into a minefield of ideas.

| Feb 8, 2008

Une russite esthtique aussi improbable qu'absolue rvlant une fois de plus les immenses talents de manipulateur de foule de Godard

| Original Score: 9/10 | Dec 1, 2007

... revolutionary, impudent and personal, and still Godard stops to admire the sublime in the ordinary...

| Original Score: A | Mar 29, 2007

Two or Three Things I Know About Her is one of the most beautiful films of the young Jean-Luc Godard, a great French cineaste, poet and frustrated lover.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/4 | Feb 22, 2007

Based on a series of magazine articles, the movie was made around the time Godard abandoned conventional narrative almost entirely for what he dubbed the cinematic essay.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Feb 16, 2007

This is unashamedly intellectual, discursive, noodling film-making, a cinema of ideas, conceived in a language that is demanding, but not totally opaque.

| Feb 16, 2007

Godard's got a lot on his mind, mainly outrage at the French government's ongoing construction of a new Paris.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 26, 2006

he her in the title of Jean-Luc Godard's 1967 film is meant to be Paris. There is, however, another 'her.'

| Original Score: 5/5 | Nov 16, 2006

Despite an aura of wistfulness, and a certain power that accrues from the disjunction between the story of a vulnerable, life-hardened woman, the chaotic collision of sound and image, and the ham-handed political lessons, this film never moves me.

| Nov 16, 2006

Raoul Coutard's Techniscope cinematography contemplates an espresso, filling the screen in monumental close-up with a rotating vortex of bubbles and foam.

| Nov 14, 2006

Too good to miss.
