Grandeur et décadence d'un petit commerce de cinéma est un téléfilm français réalisé par Jean-Luc Godard et diffusé dans le cadre de la série télévisée Série noire le 24 mai 1986 sur TF1.

Synopsis

On a dit du cinéma qu’il était une usine à rêves… Côté rêves, il y a un metteur en scène : Gaspard Bazin qui prépare son film et fait des essais pour recruter des figurants. Côté usine, il y a Jean Almereyda, le producteur qui a eu son heure de gloire et qui a de plus en plus de mal à réunir des capitaux pour monter ses affaires. Entre eux, il y a Eurydice, la femme d’Almereyda, qui voudrait être actrice. Tandis qu’Almereyda cherche de l’argent pour boucler le financement du film, et cela au péril de sa vie – car l’argent qu’on lui promet n’a pas très bonne odeur –, Gaspard fait des essais avec Eurydice.

Au cours d'un reportage vidéo sur la fabrication d'un quotidien communiste, un syndicaliste du journal et une militante gauchiste s'opposent sur le traitement et la fabrication de l'information, en particulier autour de deux images, qu'il faut légender : la photo d'un face-à-face entre un civil et un militaire, au Portugal pendant la révolution des Œillets, et celle d'un affrontement, en France pendant une grève, entre grévistes et CRS.

Selon Jean-Luc Godard, il s'agit d'un film en six parties dont les cinq premières constituent « une très longue introduction [...] comme si avant de voir la main, on voit séparément les cinq doigts», la sixième étant «une espèce de fable » sur une fausse révolution conçue par un chef d'un émirat fictif privé de ressources pétrolières.

La Chinoise is a loose adaptation of Fyodor Dostoyevsky's 1872 novel The Possessed. In the novel, a group of five disaffected citizens, each representing a different ideological persuasion and personality type, conspire to overthrow the Russian imperial regime through a campaign of sustained revolutionary violence. The film, set in contemporary Paris and largely taking place in a small apartment, is structured as a series of personal and ideological dialogues dramatizing the interactions of five French university students — three young men and two young women — belonging to a radical Maoist group called the "Aden Arabie Cell" (named for the novel, Aden, Arabie, by Paul Nizan).

"The idea is simple / A married woman and a single man meet / They love, they argue, fists fly / A dog strays between town and country / The seasons pass / The man and woman meet again / The dog finds itself between them / The other is in one, / the one is in the other / and they are three / The former husband shatters everything / A second film begins: / the same as the first, / and yet not / From the human race we pass to metaphor / This ends in barking / and a baby's cries / In the meantime, we will have seen people talking of the demise of the dollar, of truth in mathematics and of the death of a robin."
