Additional InformationGodard's first feature has been widely hailed as one of the most influential motion pictures ever made. On the run after killing a cop, a small-time crook (Belmondo) hides out in Paris with an American girl (Seberg). After she betrays him, he chooses to face his fate with an absurd stoicism modelled on his hero, Humphrey Bogart. BREATHLESS is the arguable cornerstone of the French New Wave, exhibiting the trademark documentary shooting style, natural sound design, and thematic interest in the detritus of American popular culture. (Rereleased theatrically in April, 2000.)
ReviewsEntertainment Weekly - "...[An] homage to American B movies." -- Rating: A, Total Film - ...Forty years on and BREATHLESS remains a stylistic tour de force..., Paul Greengrass - As inspiring, innovative, spare, jagged and cool today as it was the day I first saw it

DVD good. Movie has aged very badly
I love old movies, and am biased in favour of them. But this one has not aged well. One of the first 'New Wave' French movies I think it must have had a 'pioneering' or shock value. But this aspect has lost its potency. The acting is perfectly adequate, but serves no useful purpose here. I think that one can only approach this movie from a historical direction, as there is little else to recommend it. Strangely, another 'New Wave' groundbreaking movie has stood up far better to the passage of time, indeed has improved with age: 'The 400 Blows'Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
