This is one of those movies that I really need to watch multiple times in order to even get the faintest idea of whatever Godard was going for. The rest of the film shines with its great moments, but as a whole is a bit too messy to be hailed as a masterpiece. Both physical and verbal forms of comedy are utilized, sometimes at the same time, and it is endlessly fun to view some of these wacky, wildly unpredictable bits. Godard is able to inject jokes in the middle of this chaotic mess that range from the dark to the absurdist to the satirical to the witty. The best thing this weird little movie has going for it is its sense of humor. Plenty will likely find it boring, but i found it to be uproariously entertaining, although flawed. Some may call it random, some may call it genius. Often entertaining and sometimes simply laugh out loud hilarious, this weird experimental flick is unlike almost any other film there is. It's also a musical at times, as well as a strange also works as cinematic also works as an occasionally pretentious, symbolism infested art house film.this movie is many things. this marionette is Godard's hidden gem "Keep Your Right Up", an obscure avant garde comedy (?) that is in equal parts a surreal comedy and philosophical journey through Godard's unconventional and sometimes warped mind. This marionette's movements are often dark, sometimes sad, and very funny. Cinema is a deranged marionette and Godard is gleefully tugging at its strings, making it move in twisted, demented contortions. Clusters of surrealism being tossed from one moment to the next. ![]()
