Isabelle Huppert on Jean-Luc Godard

The Criterion Collection has released a clip from an exclusive new interview with actress Isabelle Huppert, which is included on the new Blu-ray release of Jean-Luc Godard's Every Man for Himself.

Every Man for Himself is part of the Criterion Collection's February batch of Blu-ray titles, which also include Nic Roeg Don't Look Now, Jean Renoir's A Day in the Country, Yasujiro Ozu's An Autumn Afternoon, Federico Fellini's Satyricon, and Martin Rosen's Watership Down.

Synopsis: After a decade in the wilds of avant-garde and early video experimentation, Jean-Luc Godard returned to commercial cinema with this work of social commentary, star-driven and narrative while remaining defiantly intellectual and visually cutting-edge. Every Man for Himself, featuring a script by Jean-Claude Carrière and Anne-Marie Miéville, looks at the sexual and professional lives of three people—a television producer (Jacques Dutronc), his ex-girlfriend (Nathalie Baye), and a prostitute (Isabelle Huppert)—to create a meditative story about work, relationships, and the notion of freedom. Made twenty years into his career, the film was, according to Godard, a second debut.
