Breathless

Jean-Luc Godard is one of my favorite directors, I just saw this movie made by him in French called “À bout de souffle” and in English “Breathless”. Breathless is considered the defining, instigating film of the French New Wave. Here’s some pictures from the movie starring Jean-Paul Belmondo, Jean Seberg, Daniel Boulanger, and Jean-Pierre Melville.

Running through the Louvre

One of my favorite scenes from the french movie from 1964 “Bande à part” by Jean Luc Godard. This scene was the inspiration to a scene in Bernardo Bertolucci’s “The Dreamers” – which is a great movie as well.

All the Boys Are Called Patrick

Here’s a little fantastic french short movie made by Jean-Luc Godard (1959).

A simple story of two longtime girl friends and room mates who unknown to each other each meet the same young man in a park on the same day. He uses almost the same pick up line with each woman and spends about 40 minutes at a café wooing each of them. Both women are smitten and both agree to meet him for dinner on one of the following evenings. They are surprised when comparing notes that they both met a Patrick, but then the next day are together when by chance they see him use the same moves on another girl near the park.
