"Hell, if I'd been born early enough to fight in the Revolution, I might have been Aaron Burr, not Herb Burr...
...Rifle. Within minutes after the assassination, cops found hidden in the storeroom a cheap, Italian-made Mannlicher-Carcano 6.5-mm. (about .26-cal.) rifle, serial number C2766.

In this fresh and giddy free-form improvisation, Godard weaves all the bright idiocy of a Hollywood musical into some very je m'en fiche French rounds involving an ecdysiast (Anna Karina) who sheds her last flimsy inhibition and decides to have a baby with her lover, or-if it happens to work out that way-with her lover's best friend (Jean-Paul Belmondo...
