Jean-Luc Godard Interview

Godard talks about being a film critic and Brigitte Bardot's obligatory nude scene in Contempt.

Interviewer: What do you think of reviews?

Godard: I think much more highly of them than most people do. It's probably because I was a critic once, and I said a lot of bad things. I was cruel and mean to a lot of people. And though my opinions haven't changed, when I read bad reviews, the important thing for me, is the discussion that's taking place. Whether it's good of bad is not the issue for me.
