...Chinoise. If Godard's current films--reportedly staged cinema-verite, interview-oriented, documentary political essays--represent a completely new development in his work, then we can consider Made in USA, Deux ou Trois Choses que Je Sais D'Elle, La Chinoise, and Weekend transition pieces between the narrative power of Pierrot le Fou and the films to come.

On y trouve une haine de la societe urbanisee et dehumanisee, qui rappelle non seulement le ruralisme de Mao, mais celui de Rousseau, de Fourier, et de Proudhon: "L'economie est blesse, qu'elle creve." "Dessous les paves c'est la plage ..." Mepris des institutions democratiques ("Referendum -- voter sa chaine et son boulet."), anarchisme ("L'emancipation de l'homme sera totale ou ne sera pas."), foi en l'action directe ("L'aboutissement de toute pensee...

...Arab terrorist organization El Fatah promptly claimed credit for the explosions that brought the total number of such incidents to 14 in two months. Its aim: to unsettle the civilian population and sabotage the modus vivendi between Jews and Arabs in Je rusalem. After a protest strike by the Arab population, normal life returned to Jerusalem. But on the Israeli-Jor danian border, the military hostilities erupted anew. At week's end Israelis and Jordanians were peppering one another across the frontier with small-arms fire...
