Vivre sa vie

1962
Directed by Jean-Luc Godard

Cast

Anna Karina

Plot

Twelve tableaux in the life of a young Parisian woman who becomes a prostitute.

Sinekatalog’s take

Godard tells the life of a young Parisian woman who becomes a prostitute in twelve tableaux, with Anna Karina both radiant and tragic. Austere and tender, it contains the famous scene of Karina watching Dreyer's Joan of Arc, and it still feels startlingly fresh.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
