A still from “The Image Book,” Godard’s final feature, released in 
2018.Photograph from Kino Lorber / Everett

He quoted – stole, even – from films, paintings, music and literature 
from the whole world, but I believe his spirit resided in the middle of 
Europe: a continent heavy with history. With Le Petit Soldat, Godard 
revealed a side of France during the Algerian liberation war. Today 
there is war in Europe again, so let’s watch Je Vous Salue, Sarajevo 
once more." Claire Denis

"More than any other filmmaker, he made viewers feel as if anything were 
possible in movies, and he made it their own urgent mission to find out 
for themselves. Where Hollywood seemed like a distant, cosseted, and 
disreputable dream, he made the firsthand cinema—the personal and 
independent film—an urgent and accessible ideal." Richard Brody
