  • Shortly after the famous scene of silence, Odile and Arthur decide to dance. Franz joins them as they perform a dance routine. The music is R&B or soul music composed for the film by Michel Legrand, but Anna Karina said the actors called it "the Madison dance." This scene influenced the dance scene with Uma Thurman and John Travolta in Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction. It also influenced scenes in Hal Hartley's Simple Men[5] and Martin Hynes' The Go-Getter.

    Unfortunately, Claude Brasseur, the actor who played Arthur died today. I like this movie as it was the last one I saw in film appreciation class in college prior to the lockdown. Only hope that Mr. Brasseur wasn’t killed by his uncle over money.

    Anna Karina: an actor of easy charm and grace whose presence radiated from the screen
    In her famous “dance” scene in Bande à Part (1964), directed by her husband Jean-Luc Godard, she is Odile, who meets up with Franz (played by Sami Frey) and Arthur (Claude Brasseur), the people with whom she plans to do a robbery. For no reason at all, for the sheer subversive mischief and fun of it, and partly also because they are a little bored (arguably the motivation for everything else as well), they do an extraordinarily insouciant dance together in the middle of a café.

    Is amazing how he narrated the thoughts of the characters while they were dancing , pretty much like Woody Allen did in one scene in Annie Hall while they were talking except that he wrote the thoughts in the screen in 1st person rather that narrate them in 3rd person.

      Agreed, this scene is engaging. Vivre Sa Vie is really the only film I got something out of of his, but Bande à part is enjoyable. And Anna Karina is magnetic. I feel he’s very overrated. Style over substance most of the time. Always trying very hard to come off as an intellectual, when most of it is quite banal.

    Il y a cette phrase en ouverture : "Mon pauvre vieux, les empires s'écroulent, les républiques s'effondrent, les imbéciles demeurent". La danse insouciante de la jeunesse se pose alors comme une barricade face au monde ancien.
