Wow, thank you so much for these links. I'm always on the lookout for more reading about Godard, and now I practically have several more books to digest -- and books about topics of particular interest to me, especially the discussion of Godard's countercultural cinema and his Histoire(s) du cinema, both aspects of his career too often given short shrift in popular coverage of him. There definitely needs to be more serious consideration of Godard's most radical period, from 1968 through the end of the 70s.
