Publisher Note
During the lockdown, Joanna Walsh watches the films of Jean-Luc Godard and reconsiders the radical promise of 1960's Paris. While still captivated by the allure of Godard's young protagonists, Walsh resists the temptation to identify with or desire the women on film. Instead, she writes an honest and clear-eyed analysis of how beauty and revolution cannot help being shaped by gender, race and class struggles. Echoing Jean-Luc Godard's pronouncement that 'cinema is truth at 24 frames per second', Joanna Walsh's essay turns its gaze on the dynamics of the camera itself and demands a new kind of art.
