French Film at OKCMOA: A Woman is a Woman

French Film at OKCMOA: A Woman is a Woman

  • Oklahoma City Museum of Art (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

French Film: A Woman Is a Woman,
March 21 - 23 at OKCMOA

  • Screening in a vibrant new 4K restoration, Jean-Luc Godard's playful and inventive homage to the classic Hollywood musical stars Anna Karina as an exotic dancer longing for a baby, who finds herself torn between her reluctant boyfriend Émile (Jean-Claude Brialy) and his best friend Alfred (Jean-Paul Belmondo).  

  • In French with English subtitles (84 minutes)

  • A Woman Is a Woman is a sly, playful tribute to—and interrogation of—the American musical comedy, showcasing Godard’s signature wit and intellectual acumen. The film tells the story of exotic dancer Angéla (Karina) as she attempts to have a child with her unwilling lover Émile (Brialy). In the process, she finds herself torn between him and his best friend Alfred (Belmondo). A dizzying compendium of color, humor, and the music of renowned composer Michel Legrand (The Umbrellas of Cherbourg), A Woman Is a Woman finds the young Godard at his warmest and most accessible, reveling in and scrutinizing the mechanics of his great obsession: the cinema.” -Criterion Collection
