From ‘Une femme est une femme’ (A Woman is a Woman)
by director Jean-Luc Godard (1961):



Godard's first film in color and made as his tribute to American musical comedies, which might explain all the red, white and blue we see in the film...

'Featuring French superstars Anna Karina, Jean-Paul Belmondo, and Jean-Claude Brialy at their peak of popularity. The film tells the story of exotic dancer Angéla (Karina) as she attempts to have a child with her unwilling lover Émile (Brialy). In the process, she finds herself torn between him and his best friend Alfred (Belmondo). A dizzying compendium of color, humor, and the music of renowned composer Michel Legrand, A Woman Is a Woman finds the young Godard at his warmest and most accessible, reveling in and scrutinizing the mechanics of his great obsession: the cinema'. -Stolen from Criterion



(Below) One of the musical scenes from the film, no subtitles (sorry!) but the song and style is terribly smart… loud music quiet vocals.
