"But it is entirely possible to question some of Godard's assertions and still
appreciate the lucidity of his analysis and even be moved by the sincerity of
the film's self-interrogation. Godard's unmistakable conclusion is of a left
wing that coped with the failure of May '68 by, in a sense, looking away: to
'make a revolution where we're not,' when a tougher, more necessary task would
have been to 'learn to see here in order to hear elsewhere.'"
Dennis Lim in the Los Angeles Times revisits Jean-Luc Godard's Ici et Ailleurs and Numero Deux, movies from the 1970s now available on DVD.
