Directed by Jean-Luc Godard • 1960 • France
Starring Jean-Paul Belmondo, Jean Seberg
There was before BREATHLESS, and there was after BREATHLESS. Jean-Luc Godard burst onto the film scene in 1960 with this jazzy, free-form,
and sexy homage to the American film genres that inspired him as a writer for “Cahiers du cinèma.” With its lack of polish, surplus of
attitude, anything-goes crime narrative, and effervescent young stars Jean-Paul Belmondo and Jean Seberg, BREATHLESS helped launch the
French New Wave and ensured that cinema would never be the same (© Criterion).
