His humor is so deadpan that I think lots of academics don't get it. Critics lump Carabiniers in with the much more ragged Petit Soldat, as you say, but it's like comparing Dr. Strangelove with Fail-Safe -- yet that's what some of these profs do... and they're teaching kids every day... teaching them that Godard is not funny, only boring and full of Communist diatribes. No wonder this country's going to hell!

I'm a little curious now. <br /><br />Anyway, I also think it's essentially a comedy of sorts. Call me crazy, but I find Godard to be largely a comedic director of sorts (only to a slight degree with certain films, like Contempt) who is funnier the darker and more scathing he gets. I once wrote a list of my top 20 favorite comedies of all time, and Week End made that list. That's why I'm not a big fan of Le Petit Soldat, as it completely lacks his particular brand of humor (although it's okay for what it is). <br /><br />Thomas Dukehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00804326045764733280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30487573.post-40343921917023126362012-08-27T04:58:37.037-05:002012-08-27T04:58:37.037-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04243294770488794697noreply@blogger.com
