CINEASTE365: MADE IN U.S.A. - Jean-Luc Godard (December 16, 2019 - Day 138)
In 1966, Jean-Luc Godard was asked by producer Georges de Beureagard if he can create a film quickly. The answer was yes and that the can film two at the same time: “Made in U.S.A.” starring Anna Karina and Laszlo Szabo and “2 or 3 Things I Know About Her” starring Marina Vlady. It’s important to note that “Made in U.S.A.” is the final full-length film he created with his ex-wife and muse Anna Karina and the first film of singer Marianne Faithfull (a popular singer in the ’60s and also the steady girlfriend of Rolling Stones vocalist Mick Jagger at the time). While “2 or 3 Things I Know About Her” stars the woman that rejected him for marriage. So, needless to say, these two films are rather significant.
“Made in U.S.A.” is the final goodbye between Karina and Godard and “2 or 3 Things I Know About Her” is a film that shows him angered by the rejection. And also two films that mark the end of the cycle of Jean-Luc Godard who has become more of a political person and wanted to use his films to deal with internal conflict that he felt about cinema and politics.
“Made in U.S.A.” is a loose adaptation of the the book “The Juggler” by Richard Stark. The film stars Anna Karina as Paula Nelson, a Bogart-like detective who travels to Atlantic City to visit her boyfriend Richard Politzer. When she arrives, she realizes he is dead. While she investigates Politzer’s death, she runs into a few people who live and then later die. Meanwhile, she is being followed by a group of gangsters which include Laszlo Szabo as Richard Widmark and Jean-Pierre Leaud as Donald Siegel.
While the film is a noir film about Paula looking for her lover’s killers. The film has many film, literary and pop culture references but also politics and storyline that features an adaptation of the real-life murder Moroccan politician Mehdi Ben Barka and Frenchman Georges Figon (known for arranging the meeting with Barka and others before his kidnapping and torture).
Figon who left audio reels to his girlfriend/actress Anna-Marie Coffinet was a friend of Godard and thus Godard used Politzer to be a Georges Figon but Godard using the character and supplying the voice for his political message that is shown throughout the film. Within this tangled web of politics, Paula gets caught up in it and the question is of all people tangled in the web, who will be the last person standing?
“Made in U.S.A.” is definitely not a film for those not familiar with Jean-Luc Godard’s work. Although there is a main story about the character of Paula investigating her lover’s murder, the film is not only heavy with references but there are a good number of political dialogue which was more or less Godard’s platform for him to get out on what was on his mind.
Although many Jean-Luc Godard films show signs of politics being used in the storyline, “Made in U.S.A.” tries to balance the film utilizing Anna Karina as this sexy, stylish detective but then using the film as a platform for politics but most importantly, for Godard to use two characters that define how he was back then as a filmmaker and then having Anna Karina taking care of the men in order to show that Jean-Luc Godard as we knew him in the past in his Anna Karina films is now no more.
“Made in U.S.A.” is the final swan song between both Jean-Luc Godard and Anna Karina. Despite being divorced at this time, she would no longer be his muse and the director would no longer be the director that many people have respected him and loved him for. His next films “La Chinoise” and “Week End” would truly mark the end of Godard’s narrative and cinematic period of his filmmaking career and from then on, Godard would be a different director focusing on revolutions and his interest in Maoist ideology and would only return to mainstream films in 1980.
This is not a film for those who are not familiar with Godard’s work or Anna Karina. I’ve met many who have watched this film solely for the purpose of the beautiful shots of Anna Karina and didn’t like the film at all. For me, my appreciation was because it was a fitting goodbye to his ex-wife. After watching this collaboration between Karina and Godard, you knew it had to end someway and “Made in U.S.A.” was the way to do it.
As incoherent this film may be to many people, I enjoyed the film in fragments. As a “noir” film, it’s not my favorite. As a Godard film, I was impressed. The cinematography by Raoul Coutard was absolutely beautiful, the awkward randomness of certain scenes was an interesting way to see a perspective of Godard as a filmmaker and as a person who faced conflict and needed an outlet to let his emotions out. Both “Made in U.S.A.” and “2 or 3 Things I Know About Her” are two different types of films made at the same time but are enjoyable in their own way.
Do I recommend “Made in U.S.A.”, yes…that is only if you have seen a good number of Jean-Luc Godard films. This by no means is a film you should start out with if you want to learn about Godard’s filmmaking style. Overall, a fantastic Criterion release and a film that I definitely enjoyed!

I already sent my answers to Emily for this, but for your edification:
Which holidays do you celebrate, if any? I celebrate (or at least in some way, acknowledge) them all. I have children (my expectation that this statement should explain everything probably says a great deal about me). I love Christmas, but clearly the most celebrated holiday in my household is my birthday and the 7 days leading up to it, or, as it is known locally, “Novakkah”, but that’s in May so probably irrelevant for this occasion.
What is your favorite holiday tradition? We go and cut down our tree as a family and decorate it together, I love pulling out our ornaments and decorating the tree (we collect ornaments).Also, on Christmas we make “Christmas Curry” everyone chops something, it’s quite festive (and delicious).
For New Year's, are you a party animal or quiet night at home type? My children require their parents to be somewhere in the near vicinity while they are sleeping, so we generally stay home. We still ring in the New Year with something festive though, but usually K falls asleep around 11 and I am usually awake all by myself, that’s how we live, on the edge.
What drives you banana hammocks about the holidays? 1) You know those people that get really carried away with the holiday directions? Particularly the ones that inflate things?…. Sometimes it’s just too much. 2) People drive eleventy bajillion times worse during the holiday season, it’s a proven fact. 3) The thing that bothers me most is how the countdown to Christmas (and I do love is so, the holiday not the countdown) begins the day before Halloween. Target is all decked out for Christmas and it’s showing a total disregard for Thanksgiving, in my humble opinion. I just realized yesterday that Thanksgiving is next week, surely someone could have capitalized on that consumerist opportunity this year.
What's your "comfort" when getting "t
hrough" the holiday season? I am that person that turns on the radio station that plays Christmas songs 24/7 after Thanksgiving. I love finding new Christmas music that doesn’t suck. Also, I drink a lot of cider during the holidays—if it’s hard cider, all the better.
Holiday foods you like. I am an equal opportunity eater, really, so I pretty much like it all. I like nougat, and that seems to be especially popular around the holidays. I actually like fruitcake during the holidays as well, so long as it is done well. And well, you know, cookies, they are a big holiday thing. We make a lot of cookies during the holidays, so therefore we eat a lot of them.
Holiday foods you despise. Fruitcake, when it is done poorly. While I am a meat eater (mmmm bacon) I do not eat organ meat, during the holidays or otherwise, because, well, no (I realize that this may be superfluous, but I have no idea, maybe someone out there is really into dehydrating meat or something).
Foods you can't eat (allergies, etc.). I am lactose intolerant, but thanks to the power of lactase enzymes, this isn’t a huge deal, but I would happily consume non-dairy deliciousness as opposed to something that I’d have to take a pill to eat.
Favorite yarn(s)? Yes, all of them. Like most, I prefer natural fibers. I heart wool, of course. I am involved in passionate affairs with yarns made by Mad Tosh (all of them), Colinette (Jitterbug), and Koigu.
On the other hand: I don’t love variegation, but if it’s done right, I could easily be persuaded to infatuation. I am allergic to possum (I discovered this knitting with a yarn made out of possum, so totally relevant), and angora makes me sneezy, too.
Crafty pursuits - knit, crochet, spin, sew, quilt, any of these or others? Yes. I knit, crochet, spin, sew, quilt, weave, and embroider. I also dye roving, I have a shop but I am not really a self-promoter, to be honest.
Hobbies/pursuits/proclivities/passions. Aside from the fiber-y pursuits, I like to cook, love to bake, I am also interested in photography, I just enrolled in a program for that, because clearly, I need less sleep than I already get.
What do you do in life? A lot. Professionally, I am a college archivist, records manager and assistant special collections librarian. You are probably thinking that I don’t get paid enough, and you’d be right. Personally, I am a mom to two boys—Little Sir and Little Mister— and wife to one—K (in case you were confused, you know, “Sister Wives” and all that).
Random favorites My favorite TV shows of all time were Dead Like Me and Pushing Daisies, when they went off the air, I might have cried a little. I watch a lot of TV while a do other stuff, but less than I used to. I love to drink decaf tea and sit back with a good book. I like seeking out new literature and new authors (that would be the librarian in me). I love finding out about new and intriguing books for kids, particularly for boys, because, well my Littles are quite boyish. I have recently entered into a “fascination with bread” phase. I am obsessed with it and want to bake all kinds of bread for my belleh.
Other stuff- I have just moved to a new house. And while happy and exciting, I did not expect to be doing the whole moving house thing during the holidays, so I am a little stressed out about moving (in phases on our own, because holy Hannah, the pro movers wanted an arm, a leg and our third born child to move us). Also, my mother in law is coming to visit two weeks before Christmas, and that’s not going to be helpful at all, but I digress, I have just moved into a new house.
I love my Keurig and like to try the decaf K-Cup options, Newman’s Own is still my favorite thus far. I just got an espresso maker that takes pods, and it’s the bee’s knees.

Homicide Memorial for 26 year old Eric Graham who was gunned down near this location at Hempstead Avenue and Tower Street on August 13th 2016. The memorial itself is up the block more near this building with the address 188-230 Hempstead. I drove around the corner and saw a sign that said these are the "Kenfield Homes" of Buffalo New York. Located near Edison Avenue and Langfield Drive. Eric Graham was the 28th person murdered in 2016 in Buffalo New York. His murder case is currently unsolved.

There are 3 PCBs mounted in the main chassis. At the top, the small PCB contains an audio oscillator to produce a warning tone if the announcement tape is not properly loaded.
In the middle (on the slant, next to the announcement solenoid) is a 2-transistor latch circuit to turn on an indicator lamp if the announcement has been played -- that is that the machine has answered a call -- so that it is worth checking for messages on the tape.
At the bottom is the audio output amplifier to drive the speaker. Curiously, the driver stage and the driver transformer are on the main PCB, resulting in a lot of connections between the two.
