Jean-Luc Godard himself called the movie a "stupid, stupid idea". The creators of the film then put this quote on the poster in very large font.
When in the film Godard meets the filmmaker Bernardo Bertolucci, there is the curious circumstance that the actor who plays the first of them (Louis Garrel) obtained his first cinematographic success in real life under the orders of the Italian director in "The Dreamers" (2003).
This is the second time that Michel Hazanavicius has explored the world of cinema. The first was The Artist (2011).
