In the 1966 film Two or Three Things I Know About Her, director Jean-Luc Godard explored his growing sense of despair regarding both interpersonal relationships and society at large. The film is specifically devoted to Paris and serves as a reflection of the director's critical view of modern life during that period.1

By this stage in his career, Godard’s work increasingly moved away from purely aesthetic preoccupations toward a broader critique of the bourgeois life and the societal structures of the time. The film reflects a period where his focus shifted toward the ideological crises of Western society, marking a transition toward the more explicitly political and left-wing themes that would define his later work in the late 1960s.1
