I saw this movie a while ago, but I just came across Roger Ebert's review of the movie today and it confused me. IMDB and Ebert's site credits the writing and directing to Godard, but then Ebert talks about how this film is six unrelated sketches each done by a different director? He lists Godard, Rouch, Pollet, Chabrol, Rohmer, and Douchet. Also, on Ebert's site the film is listed as being shot in color?
Can anyone tell me what Ebert is talking about?
Ebert seems to be talking about the movie "Paris vu par..."
Here's the imdb-link:

I haven't seen it though, so I can't comment...
Cheers

He was actually reviewing LE PETIT SOLDAT and then including SIX IN PARIS ("Paris vu par...") in with that review. Though both films seem to have "no stars" ratings, he didn't seem to hate them. I find it frustrating when a film doesn't get a star rating on his site yet the review seems to warrant at least one star. I'm getting into Godard, and have seen BREATHLESS, BAND OF OUTSIDERS, NOTRE MUSIQUE (OUR MUSIC), LES CARABINIERS, ALPHAVILLE, (my second favorite film) A WOMAN IS A WOMAN -- and my favorite Godard film WEEKEND. I also saw SIX IN PARIS in film school. It was just okay.
shareI think the zero stars thing was a mistake, because Ebert saves that rating for films he absolutely despises and his review of Le Petit Soldat is positive if anything.
