France • d: Richard Linklater • R • 106m • English & French w/ English subtitles
One of America’s leading cinematic innovators over the last 30 years, Richard Linklater (SLACKER, The BEFORE Trilogy, BOYHOOD) celebrates a visionary who undoubtedly inspired him, recreating the making of Jean-Luc Godard’s legendary, history-altering 1959 debut film BREATHLESS (À BOUT DE SOUFFLE). Linklater shoots in black and white, ingeniously mimicking the improvisational semi-documentary style that Godard pioneered 65 years ago. Guillaume Marbeck, in a brilliantly convincing performance, offers us Godard as a complex, uncompromising and radical intellectual with a bit of con-man and jokester in him. And Linklater (in a screenplay co-written with Holly Gent, Vincent Palmo Jr., Michèle Pétin and Laetitia Masson) deftly captures the energy of one of the most explosive, exciting moments of creative output in modern times. We catch a glimpse of heady, exuberant filmmakers—friends, lovers and competitors—as they begin to birth a new cinematic world.
