Le Mépris - Totalement Tendrement Tragiquement
This documentary on Godard's Le Mépris features, among others, a contribution by Godard's former assistant director, Charles Bitsch, who discusses the genesis of the film. Interesting points are made about Godard's use of colors, his references to antiquity, and to Le Mépris as a work of self-reflexive cinema. Godard scholar Alain Bergala explains how Godard had intended to posit Le Mépris at a turning point in film history, "perhaps the last 'great' film", with its emphasis on characters as "instances" (the young couple, the American producer, the great German director).

It's Theater VS Cancer in "Don't Say Good Luck"
Netflix’s new comedy drama, Don’t Say Good Luck, is a heartwarming tearjerker as well as a love letter to the transformative power of being a theater kid. Directed by Julia Hart, Don’t Say Good Luck follows Sophie (Sunny Sandler), a theater kid who finally gets the lead role in her school’s production of Waitress - just as she finds out her mom Elizabeth (Melanie Lynskey) is dying of cancer. While the singing is by no means spectacular and Sandler’s acting is stiff, the film is grounded in the moving performance of Lynskey as a mother who wants nothing more than for her daughter to achieve her dreams, even if she can’t be there to see them.
