故事分成三個(ge)章節:主要(yao)的章節由高達親自飾演導演,正要趕(gan)乘飛機,在24小(xiao)時內(na)把一部電影的菲林交給監製;同時一(yi)隊二人流行電子(zi)音樂(le)組合,不(bu)斷(duan)排(pai)練歌曲(qu),最(zui)後(hou)在路上表(biao)演(yan);另一(yi)邊(bian)廂(xiang),愚笨的大肥佬捲入一宗事件,被神秘女人密切監(jian)視,最後更被拘捕。三段故事看似毫(hao)無關連(lian),實際是高達以(yi)電影來討(tao)論電影製作和藝術創作(zuo)的重要。片名看似帶有(you)弦外(wai)之音,就像高(gao)達暗示,假(jia)如監製或其他人要干擾導演的藝術創(chuang)作,就索性我(wo)行我素,忠於自己的(de)道路好(hao)了。這(zhe)大(da)概亦(yi)示範了高(gao)達如何純(chun)熟(shu)地運用電(dian)影(ying)媒體來做評論。
A film in three chapters: Godard plays the director in the main chapter, rushing to catch a plane to pass the negatives to his producer within 24 hours; an electronic duo keeps rehearsing for their roadshow; a clumsy fat man gets involved in an incident, and is arrested after being watched by a mysterious woman. Seemingly unrelated events, Godard is discussing the importance of film producer and artistic creativity. Godard is making the statement that if a producer or anyone interferes with creativity, it is better for the artist to go one's own way. A showpiece of how Godard uses the film media as his critical essay.
