Breathless
Small-time crook Michel (<b>Jean-Paul Belmondo</b>), styling himself after Humphrey Bogart, panics during a car theft and fatally shoots a policeman. On the run, he hides out with his aspiring journalist girlfriend, Patricia (<b>Jean Seberg</b>), in her Paris apartment while trying to scrape together enough cash for an escape to Italy. But once Patricia discovers he’s wanted for murder, her loyalty wavers.
Dedicated to the American B-movie studio Monogram Pictures, <b>Jean-Luc Godard’s</b> genre-shattering debut remains a cornerstone of the French New Wave and one of cinema’s most influential works. Seberg and Belmondo’s defining performances set a new template for cinematic cool, while <b>Raoul Coutard’s</b> handheld black-and-white cinematography captures Paris in all its restless energy. <b>Cécile Decugis’s</b> radical editing, especially her pioneering use of jump cuts, changed film language forever.
