pierrot le fou is flat

the party scene in jean-luc godard's pop art film "pierrot le fou" is fascinatingly boring and full of phonies*. the monochromatic color scheme and dialogue speak directly to the self-aware materialism of the pop art movement. these stills are all too reminiscent of lichtenstein's work, but it was very interesting to see how godard flattened out this film.
