Review of Breathless (2009) by Corey S — 02 Aug 2008
When I first saw this film, I thought, "So What?' The reason for that reaction was because it was the mid 1980's and all that Godard had to offer was already being used in the MTV video clips, flashy television commercials and other wanna-be Godardian filmmakers.
It wasn't until after I saw Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction did I decided to revisit Breathless, and glad that I did. To me, this is where it all started from. Godard was hipper than hip.
He brought together the then modern culture infused with the classic Hollywood detective genre of the 40s and 50s. He mixed it all up, gave it a shake and came up with this landmark movie.
