Hiçbir kalıba sığmayan, dünyanın en yaratıcı ve yenilikçi yönetmenlerinden Godard’ın bu son filmi yine kışkırtıcı, yine zorlayıcı, elbette politik ve zihin açıcı. Godard’ın kendi sesiyle "Savaş geldi" diyerek başlattığı, bazılarına göre "gözlere ve kulaklara hitap eden bir şiir", bazılarına göre ise "bir korku filmi kadar güncel ve dehşet verici" olan İmgeler ve Sözcükler, bilge aktivist Godard’ın gözünden dünyanın hâlini anlatıyor. Farklı formatların, görüntü kaynaklarının, ses parçalarının kolajlandığı İmgeler ve Sözcükler, sinemada artık hiçbir şeye özgün denilemeyeceğini iddia eden bir zihin egzersizi, oryantalizmden sinema ahlakına kadar birçok konuya değinen görsel bir bombardıman, yine heyecan verici bir başyapıt.

İmgeler ve Sözcükler

The story of Italian cinema under Fascism, a sophisticated film industry built around the founding of the Cinecittà studios and the successful birth of a domestic star system, populated by very peculiar artists among whom stood out several beautiful, magnetic, special actresses; a dark story of war, drugs, sex, censorship and tragedy.

How can the masses be controlled? Apparently, the American publicist Edward L. Bernays (1891-1995), a pioneer in the field of propaganda and public relations, knew the answer to such a key question. The amazing story of the master of manipulation and the creation of the engineering of consent; a frightening true story about advertising, lies and charlatans.

The dashing and dazzling Douglas Fairbanks was the movie star who "swashbuckled in Zorro, dueled exuberantly in Robin Hood and soared magnificently in The Thief of Bagdad"-- He was the "First King of Hollywood".

Mary Pickford's name remains inseparable from the legend of American cinema. She invented the star system at the beginning of the 20th century, and was the biggest star ever known, not just in Hollywood, but worldwide, at a time when actors didn't even have their names on movie posters. She was more than a pioneer, she was a jack-of-all-trades: world-famous star, producer and formidable businesswoman, screenwriter and director in the shadows, studio boss, Mary Pickford alone embodied the entire legend of cinema and the advent of women in that particular era.
