The Little Soldier (1963)

The film is harrowing at times to watch, and Godard, even in this, his second feature, is sacrificing entertainment to art.

Musings on the fate of noble men in war.
Le Mépris (1963)

Review preview for Le Mépris

This film is one of the most rounded of any of Godard’s work and can easily be viewed as ‘mainstream’ – the more philosophical riddles being purely optional.

Two In The Wave (2009)

Review preview for Two In The Wave

Two In The Wave is informative without ever feeling didactic, entertaining in and of itself, and aided by a subject that's likely to be of interest to filmgoers anyway.
