    I’m not being racist. The only Maoists who are reasonable people are Chinese, Indians, Filipinos, etc.

    Maoists from countries like France or USA tend to be retarded.

    If you’ve seen the film, you know that Godard’s perspective is that of the ironist.

    tal vez me expliqué mal.
    Lo que me molesta es que siempre hablan en la tele y en la prensa de la pequeña y mediana burguesía.
    Lo que se preocupan cuando hay crisis económicas. Pero nunca hablan de la clase obrera.
    Quería decir que la fuerza revolucionaria pertenece a la clase obrera y no a los universitarios y pequeña burguesía, como ocurrióen París en el 68, que lo único que sirvió fue para derrocar al presidente. Tengo la peli en dvd pero no los subtítulos en fr. Lo siento.

    @pamphilia Not really… he was into Mao… he may be taking the piss out of Maoists, but like all Euro-Communists, they were sold a lie about how the Cultural Revolution happened, and the terrible costs of it. I consider myself a socialist sorta, but the 1968 brigade were believing in a fiction.

    La Chinoise is the end of Godard’s anarchist era juste before he entered the Dziga Vertov group. He quits it in 1972, convinced of the failure of every utopia. It’s quiet the end of his career in cinema.

    this movie is a denouncement of violent revolutionary politics. those who say it was intended to inspire an uprising probably didn’t watch the whole thing. the students and their actions are ultimately portrayed as inconsequential and naive, the product of months spent locked in an apartment reading books, cut off from the real world. the presence of only primary colors (until the one guy shoots himself) in the apartment is representative of their oversimplified and unrealistic worldview.

    I am not sure that the film was intended as a blanket denunciation of violent revolutionary politics, since it seems that Godard himself was by that time moving towards a Maoist political stance. I think he was denouncing a politics based on terrorism, since such a politics operated under the delusion that a small group of people could achieve their goals through the use of terrorist tactics.

    But even here, his stance at the time seems to be ambiguous. In the film, Godard relied upon the cameo appearance of Francis Jeanson to make the case against Veronique’s resort to terrorism. But in interviews, Godard has stated that he was more sympathetic towards Veroniqe’a position than Jeanson’s.
