   Is King Lear an anti-film?

   • It's an anti-film, a film made deliberately to be disliked as much as it dislikes itself. Just as Godard's film about Lausanne, Lettre a Freddie Buache, consists of his refusal to make a film about Lausanne, so King Lear is his refusal to make the Lear required of him, while contract bound to make something.

   Is King Lear a good book?

   • September 15, 1987 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review… It is not for the fainthearted. King Lear could never be the starting point for those keen to learn of Godard's work, but it's innovative. November 26, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review… Shakespeare through the Godard meat-grinder.

   What is King Lear about in Lettre a Freddie Buache?

   • Just as Godard's film about Lausanne, Lettre a Freddie Buache, consists of his refusal to make a film about Lausanne, so King Lear is his refusal to make the Lear required of him, while contract bound to make something. It opens with an actual phonecall from the producer giving Godard a roasting for failing to deliver the film.
