About Contempt

Art film producer Jeremy Prokosch, unhappy with the work of his director, hires Fritz Lang (as himself) to direct an adaptation of The Odyssey, but when it seems that the legendary filmmaker is making a picture destined to bomb, he brings in a screenwriter to energise the script. The professional intersects with the personal when a rift develops between the writer and his wife.

Contempt (1963) is a romance film directed by Jean-Luc Godard. The film is filed under divorce, italy, movie business, and car crash.

Brigitte Bardot takes the lead as Camille Javal, Michel Piccoli as Paul Javal, Jack Palance as Jeremy Prokosch, and Giorgia Moll as Francesca Vanini. At 103 minutes long, it arrived in October 1963.

The screenplay is by Jean-Luc Godard. It comes from C. C. Champion, Les Films Concordia, and Rome-Paris Films. The film began as a novel. It streams on BFI Player Amazon Channel and Lionsgate+ Amazon Channel in the United States.
