Anna Karina V'98

In October 1998, the Viennale and the Austrian Film Museum jointly presented a major retrospective of the films of the radical and influential French filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard (*1930). Among the guests was Godard's ex-wife, actress Anna Karina (*1940), who starred in many of his key films from LE PETIT SOLDAT (1960) to MADE IN U.S.A. (1966) and became an iconic figure of the Nouvelle Vague in the process. In this clip, Karina - who in addition to her award winning acting career is also a noted singer, novelist and director - recounts her experience working with Godard.
