100Moves us now because it's so playful and the players are so young - and because later, when Godard tried to play for keeps, in his self-consciously radical films of the late '60s and '70s, he began to lose his game.
-
80Godard's third feature film and his first in color, A Woman is a Woman is one of the most enjoyable of all the master's works.
-
60Only intermittently bright. Too much homage to Yank musicals and comedies point up the lack of polish.
-
60Godard light, but not lite: Its breezy postures front for melancholia.
