SYNOPSIS: A cockeyed fusion of science fiction, pulp characters, and surrealist poetry, Godard’s irreverent journey to the mysterious Alphaville remains one of the least conventional films of all time. Eddie Constantine stars as intergalactic hero Lemmy Caution, on a mission to kill the inventor of fascist computer Alpha 60.
They can't all be winners. I feel like the artwork here does not match the film. I get it, they were going for a pulp feel but they got the colors all wrong. In fact coloring is 90% of the problem here and the other 10% is the newspaper dot filled photos. The back actually does more justice than the cover. Sorry Criterion, I KNOW you can do better.
Criterion Canvas score: D
