Description:Before his convention-shattering debut, Breathless, had even premiered, Jean-Luc Godard leapt into the making of his second feature, a thriller that would tackle the most controversial subject in France: the use of torture in the Algerian War. Despite his lack of political convictions, photojournalist Bruno Forestier (Michel Subor) is roped into a paramilitary group waging a shadow war in Geneva against the Algerian independence movement. Anna Karina (in her first collaboration with Godard, whose camera is visibly besotted with her) is beguiling as the mysterious woman with whom Forestier becomes infatuated. Banned for two and a half years by French censors for it's depiction of brutal tactics on the part of the French government and the Algerian fighters alike, Le petit soldat finds the young Godard already retooling cinema as a vehicle for existential inquiry, political argument, and ephemeral portraiture in other words, as a medium for delivering truth twenty-four times per second.
Le Petit Soldat Bd is a Blu-Ray release of Jean-Luc Godard?s provocative 1963 film, produced by CRRN. This essential piece of French New Wave cinema follows Bruno Forestier, a young man caught between political ideologies during the Algerian War. The Blu-Ray edition offers restored visuals and exclusive bonus content for cinephiles and collectors alike. CRRN is renowned for its dedication to preserving classic films with high-quality restorations and insightful extras that enrich the viewing experience. The film stars Michel Subor as Bruno Forestier, whose nuanced performance anchors the story?s moral ambiguity. Anna Karina shines as Véronica Dreyer; her collaboration with Godard in this and other classics like "Vivre Sa Vie" cemented her status as an icon of European cinema. Director Jean-Luc Godard revolutionized filmmaking with works such as "Breathless," influencing generations through his innovative narrative techniques and visual style. Cinematographer Raoul Coutard contributed his signature handheld camera work, shaping the look of modern cinema.
