   Is contempt a good movie?

   • Contempt, one of Jean-Luc Godard’s greatest masterpieces, has a stately air that breaks with the filmmaker’s earlier, throwaway, hit-and-run manner, as though he were this time allowing himself to aim for cinematic sublimity. It is both his richest study of human relations, and a film very much about a tortured kind of movie love.

   Is contempt a 'two-penny' or 'normal' movie?

   • Still, that was enough for Godard to dismiss his own achievement over the years as “two-penny” and “normal.” Allow him to be mistaken. Contempt is the only one of Godard’s films in which his sequences have enough room to become spells, boosted on the achingly sad strains of Georges Delerue ’s seesawing orchestral score.

   Why is 'contempt' not a great Godard film?

   • "Contempt'' is not one of the great Godard films, for reasons it makes clear. In a way, it's about its own shortcomings. A drama exists at ground level involving the characters, while the film fights between the tendency to elevate them into art (Lang) or vulgarize them into commerce (Palance).
