Such relaxed filmmaking combined with artistic rigor is no longer feasible. [27 Aug 2001, p.15]
What seems most striking today, in spite of the many moments of comedy and elation, is how painfully candid and personal it is in its despair and disillusionment.
The plot may be nothing, but the film is something indeed.
This remains one of Godard's most appealing and underrated films, relatively relaxed and strangely optimistic.
The movie is more fun than Breathless, a minority (though not sacrilegious) opinion. [10 Jan 2003]
Band of Outsiders is about the tyranny of living a life of movie-fed fantasies, and while it makes us see the poverty of those fantasies, it also makes them unaccountably rich, poetic, sad.
The strangely mesmerizing dance contest in "Pulp Fiction" was born of Jean-Luc Godard's 1964 New Wave classic Band of Outsiders.
