Episode 69: Alphaville (1965)
I revisit Jean-Luc Godard’s Alphaville (1965), a film that fascinated me even while I wasn’t always sure what was going on. Blending film noir, science fiction and philosophy, it’s a remarkably early look at technology, logic and the loss of humanity.
In this episode of Dave’s Movie Diary, I explore Godard’s unique style, the unforgettable Lemmy Caution, and why Alphaville still feels surprisingly relevant today.
