{ Breathless }

If you have yet to discover the beauty of Jean-Luc Godard's films this is as good a place as any to start. Often reffered to as one of the most (if not thee most) influential of the French New Wave movement Godard's films ooze with stylized imagery , bebop jazz, and wreckless editing. In this film, nomadic thug Michel (Jean-Paul Belmondo) is on the run from police and finds solace in aspiring journalist Patricia (played by one of the most beautiful women to grace the silver screen, Jean Seberg). The two evade capture as they steal cars in an attempt to drift off into the sunset. This is an absolute must view for film buffs. - Written by Jay, read more of his reviews at Caffeine-Headache.net.

My best friend recently sent me a fantastic interview with Godard. Such pithy quotes.
