A new generation of filmmakers growing in the shadow
of ‘the Greats’
Culture is not a product, a lesson by Jean-Luc Godard
In 2001, In Praise of Love (Éloge de l'amour) was
released. The film is notable for its use of both film
and video—the first half captured in 35-mm black
and white, the latter half shot in color on DV—and
subsequently transferred to film for editing. The
blending of film and video recalls the statement
from Sauve Qui Peut, in which the tension
between film and video evokes the struggle
between Cain and Abel. The film is also noted for
containing themes of aging, love, separation, and
rediscovery as it follows the young artist Edgar in
his contemplation of a new work on the four
stages of love.
