JLG/JLG

France/Switzerland, 1994, 35mm, color, 63 min.

As Godard once remarked, "The cinema is an x-ray machine in which one photographs one’s own disease." In his moving self-portrait, we discover that the disease has a name: cinephilia. Made on the cusp of the centennial of the cinema and the director reaching his mid-sixties, JLG/JLG captures the complexity and brilliance of Godard’s work in film as it touches on a multitude of concerns, from memory and painting to the Swiss Alps, money and tennis.
