In Praise of Love (French: Éloge de l'amour) is a 2001 French film written and directed by Jean-Luc Godard. The black-and-white and color drama was shot by Julien Hirsch and Christophe Pollock. [1] Godard has famously stated that "a film should have a beginning, a middle and an end, but not necessarily in that order."
In Praise of Love is a masterclass in juxtaposition and abstraction - a film where Godard frames the sombre, velvety black-and-white shadows of the present-day, along with the thick supersaturated tones of an extended flashback - to tell a love story, as well as the story of love itself.
