FEATURE: Pierrot Le Fou: An Education in Color

One of Jean-Luc Godard's most loved features, Pierrot le Fou (1965), is a stylish, percolating film, full of heady ideas, humor and swaths of bright color. Starring Jean-Paul Belmondo and Anna Karina, Pierrot le Fou follows a pair of reunited former lovers, who go on the run from the law, gun-running Algerians and themselves. As part of their week-long tribute to Godard's work, Network Awesome asked me to dig a little deeper into the film, and create a companion piece to accompany their screening.
