Rating: NR

American secret agent Lemmy Caution (Eddie Constantine, “Attack of the Robots”) is sent to the distant space city of Alphaville where he must find a missing person and kill the inventor of fascist computer Alpha 60. Anna Karina (“The Nun”) and Akim Tamiroff (“Touch of Evil”) co-star in this cockeyed fusion of science-fiction with pulp characters and surrealist poetry. Godard’s irreverent journey to the mysterious Alphaville remains one of the least conventional films of all time. Beautifully shot in glorious black-and-white by Raoul Coutard (“Jules and Jim”, “First Name: Carmen”).
