A Woman is a Woman (Une Femme est une Femme) (1961)
A Woman is a Woman is a "musical" with no dancing and only one song, but Godard understands how the exalted language of the form (the pulsating color, the bold simplicity of the compositions, the arch acting) speaks to outsized emotions.

 A Woman is a Woman - DVD Movie Central
A Woman is a Woman would jumpstart her budding acting career, during which she would star in several more Godard films and establish herself as one of the most popular French actresses of the 1960's (not to mention Godard's eventual wife).
A Woman is a Woman not only firmly established Godard's reputation as a major French director but also spotlighted his willingness to find new solutions to old cinematic conventions.
A Woman is a Woman, the sound was regularly recorded on the streets, so background noise does at times obscure the dialogue (happily, not a problem with subtitles turned on).

 A Woman Is A Woman - Movie Review
Woman is disorienting and unfamiliar, and altogether compelling.
But A Woman Is a Woman is indeed a bastard musical as he puts it: A story set to song that takes place in a filthy bedroom and a strip club, and involves betrayal and seemingly heartless characters.
Woman can be trying during moments like this, but Godard has a point: Life isn't like they show in a Hollywood musical.

 American Cinematographer: DVD Playback September 2004
Jean-Luc Godard once called A Woman Is a Woman his first real film, and its gorgeous color and widescreen images are certainly a long way from the guerrilla-filmmaking aesthetic of his first two features, Breathless and Le Petit Soldat.
Even more than those films, A Woman Is a Woman plays like an extension of Godard’s criticism for Cahiers du Cinema, as he creates a cinematic essay addressing the conventions of Hollywood musicals and comedies.
The audacity of A Woman Is a Woman is largely absent in Charlotte et Veronique, but the themes that would consume Godard for decades are already apparent.

 DVD Verdict Review - A Woman Is A Woman: Criterion Collection
Godard described A Woman Is a Woman (Une Femme est Une Femme)—his third film—as a "neorealist musical." That may sound like an oxymoron, a prime example of the filmmaker's arch wit, but it's actually a fairly accurate assessment.
A Woman Is a Woman is precociously self-aware, but it's all in the service of the surgery the director is performing on the art of moviemaking.
Since A Woman Is a Woman is a movie about movies, Godard rightly shot the picture in scope—his first use of the wide frame—and in color.

No doubt, A Woman is a Woman (Une Femme est une Femme in French) is innovative, but, as in his later film Weekend it is not successfully innovative.

 The DVD Journal | Quick Reviews: A Woman is a Woman
Jean-Luc Godard famously claimed over forty years ago that his third feature, A Woman is a Woman (1961), is a neorealist musical, and the terminology has stuck to this day despite the director explicitly discounting this amusingly contradictory label in the same breath.
Indeed, A Woman is a Woman is the filmmaker's recognition of his own validation as an artist of international renown, but it's never too smug in its celebration, which is a miracle for the exceedingly self-satisfied Godard.
The Criterion Collection presents A Woman is a Woman in a beautiful anamorphic transfer with clean Dolby Digital 1.0 monaural audio.

 Amazon.com: A Woman Is a Woman: Video: Jean-Luc Godard,Jean-Claude Brialy,Anna Karina,Jean-Paul Belmondo,Nicole ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
The basic premise is effectively that of a kitchen sink drama; an exotic dancer's (Anna Karina) whim to have a baby is met with consternation by her boyfriend (Jean-Claude Brialy), who is further dismayed when she asks a mutual friend (Jean-Paul Belmondo) to act as a surrogate father.
And it is with Truffaut's masterpiece that A WOMAN IS A WOMAN shares its essential raison d'tre - the embodiment of femininity through a dazzling and formidable singularity, in this instance Anna Karina, whose whims, mood-swings and impetuosity are her right and privilege as a woman, as all women.
Woman is not Godard's best, but it is sexy with the strippers as your average working girls and the voyeuristic men, joyless and peculiar.

 A Woman is a Woman Movie Review - A Woman is a Woman Movie Trailer - The Boston Globe   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
To see "A Woman Is a Woman'' in 2003 is to revisit that long ago moment when the movies seemed reborn and anything was possible: you could crack your heart on the nostalgia.
``Woman'' is a musical in the bargain, or, rather, the only Cubist musical ever made (and, no, the editing in ``Chicago'' doesn't count).
``A Woman Is a Woman'' is also peppered with in-jokes and asides - a knowledgeable cineaste's head may well collapse when Jeanne Moreau wanders through and Belmondo asks her how ``Jules and Jim'' is going - so it's best not to parse it too heavily for meaning.

 A Woman is a Woman
This steeping in cinema tradition helped to lay the groundwork for the radical re-invention of the cinema that the director would undertake in the '60s and early '70s with an amazing run of motion pictures that would both reflect upon and expand the art of the film.
Most of Godard’s earliest tales are filled with allusions to other movies and to the Hollywood dreamscape in general, and A Woman is a Woman is certainly no exception to this rule.
With last year’s release of Band of Outsiders (Bandé A Part) and this year’s A Woman is a Woman, Criterion has now released the two most accessible works of a cinema legend to the wider public.
