Title: New Wave films the movie equivalent of modern art?
Review: Alphaville in this reviewer evokes a reaction similar to looking at certain examples of modern art, a painting by, say Ad Reinhardt. Although I can not argue it is "great" or even good, for some unexplainable reason I like it. As Picasso once remarked " If one tries to "understand" a painting he is barking up thr wrong tree". I am convinced this argument can be made for almost any art form (and perhaps other things as well). And if one likes it, is that not all that matters?
