Bande à part (Band of outsiders)
(1964)
So Godard's production company, I noticed in the opening credits, was named after his female lead and then-wife, Anna Karina, which seems rather like getting a tattoo. When Tarantino started his company, he named it after this film, meaning he'd need to change it only in the unlikely event of his breaking up w/ Godard.I enjoyed this, and given that it took me a second screening to fall in love with À bout de souffle, I wouldn't rule this out of the pantheon permanently. One thing, though: Tarantino's crooks fail because they just can't control every element, not because they're total blithering idiots.
