Pierrot Le Fou (1965) Scene - Driving a Ford Galaxie In The Ocean

Great scene with Ferdinand and Marianne driving in the 1962 Ford Galaxie they just stole. The 1962 Ford Galaxie is actually one of my grandfather's favorite car. Unfortunately, they drove it down the ocean in this scene, but it makes for a fun moment. Pierrot le Fou (pronounced: [pjɛʁo lə fu], French for “Pierrot the madman“) is a 1965 French film directed by Jean-Luc Godard, starring Jean-Paul Belmondo and Anna Karina. The film is based on the 1962 novel Obsession by Lionel White. Like many of Godard's films, Pierrot le fou features characters who break the fourth wall by looking into the camera. It also includes startling editing choices; for example, when Pierrot throws a cake at a woman in the party scene, Godard cuts to an exploding firework just as it hits her. The film has many of the characteristics of the then dominant pop art movement,[4] making constant disjunctive references to various elements of mass culture. Like much pop art the film uses visuals drawn from cartoons and employs an intentionally garish visual aesthetic based on bright primary colors.
