Alphaville (1965)

Alphaville, une étrange aventure de Lemmy Caution - 1965

by Jean-Luc Godard

Your voice, your eyes, your hands, your lips... 

Our silences, our words... 

Light that goes, light that returns. 

A single smile between us.

 In quest of knowledge, I watched night create day while we seemed unchanged.

 O beloved all, beloved of one alone, your mouth silently promised to be happy. 

Away, away says hate; Closer, closer says love.

 A caress leads us from our infancy.

 Increasingly I see the human form as a lovers' dialogue. 

The heart has but one mouth. 

Everything by chance. 

All words without thought. 

Sentiments adrift. 

Men roam the city. 

A glance, a word. 

Because I love you, everything moves. 

We must advance to live. 

Aim straight ahead towards those you love. 

I went toward you, endlessly toward the light. 

If you smile, it enfolds me all the better. 

The rays of your arms pierce the mist.
