We’re now in the month of Cannes Film Festival 2023 and they have a few more surprises up their sleeves thanks to the announcement of their Cannes Classics lineup. After being heavily rumored, it’s now confirmed a posthumous film from the legendary Jean-Luc Godard will premiere at the festival, billed as “Trailer of the film that will never exist: Phony Wars” and clocking at 20 minutes. Described as “the ultimate gesture of cinema,” Godard wrote this accompanying text: “No longer trusting the billions of diktats of the alphabet to give back their freedom to the incessant metamorphoses and metaphors of a true language by returning to the places of past shootings, while taking into account the present stories.”
Also amongst the lineup is Room 999 featuring interviews with James Gray, Rebecca Zlotowski, Claire Denis, Olivier Assayas, Nadav Lapid, Asghar Farhadi, and Alice Rohrwacher; a mini Ozo retro; Man Ray restorations scored by Sqürl’s Jim Jarmusch and Carter Logan; plus new restorations of Alfred Hitchcock’s Spellbound, Jacques Rivette’s L’Amour Fou, Caligula – The Ultimate Cut, and more.
MEMORIES OF JEAN-LUC GODARD
Godard three times and for the ultimate time in majesty: the filmmaker celebrated through his last movie in world premiere, an exclusive documentary about him and a 4K restoration of one of his many masterpieces.
Le Mépris
Contempt
Jean-Luc Godard
1963, 1h40, France
A Studiocanal presentation. Restoration, supervision and digitalization in 4K by Studiocanal at Hiventy, with the participation of the CNC.
« No one better than Godard in Le Mépris has ever practiced cinema as the art of editing and editing as the art of circulating intensities, of changing lines. The art of moving from a color to a voice intonation, from a camera movement to a musical phase, from the birth of an emotion to the discovery of a space, from one speed to another» Alain Bergala. Screening in the presence of Juliette Hochart, EVP Film Library and Thierry Lacaze, Director of Theatrical, Video and VOD Distribution, Studiocanal.
Godard par Godard
Godard by Godard
Written by Frédéric Bonnaud and directed by Florence Platarets
1h, France
An Ex Nihilo production, with the participation of France Télévisions and the CNC.
Godard by Godard is an archival self-portrait of Jean-Luc Godard. It retraces the unique and unheard-of path, made up of sudden detours and dramatic returns, of a filmmaker who never looks back on his past, never makes the same film twice, and tirelessly pursues his research, in a truly inexhaustible diversity of inspiration. Through Godard’s words, his gaze and his work, the film tells the story of a life of cinema; that of a man who will always demand a lot of himself and his art, to the point of merging with it.
Screening in the presence of Florence Platarets and Frédéric Bonnaud.

WORLD PREMIERE RESTORED FILMS
Because the relation of contemporary cinema to its own history was about to be shaken up by the arrival of digitalization, because the Festival de Cannes must also enchant cinemas of the past, the Festival de Cannes created Cannes Classics in 2004, to present classical films in restored versions. A now integral and essential part of the Selection Officielle, Cannes Classics is also a way for the festival to pay homage to the fundamental work provided by right-holders, cinematheques, production companies and national archives across the world. In this way, Cannes Classics puts the Festival de Cannes’ prestige in service of rediscovered cinema, accompanying the release of great films of the past in theaters or on DVD.
