A stunning new restoration for the 60th anniversay of Le Mépris, a landmark of the French New Wave, directed by cinema’s original enfant terrible, Jean-Luc Godard.
Featuring style icon Brigitte Bardot (And God Created Woman, Viva Maria!) as Camille, and legendary French talent Michel Piccoli (Belle De Jour, The Things of Live) as Paul, Le Mépris boasts a strong and eclectic supporting cast featuring director Fritz Lang as himself, American star Jack Palance and Giorgia Moll.
Set around the extraordinary Villa Malaparte on Capri, Le Mépris charts the faultering relationship of Paul and Camille. Engrossed in the task of re-writing a film script. Paul seems oblivious to the producer’s interest in Camille. What results is an emotionally rending and evocatively shot portrait of a relationship unravelling.
