    The Beginning of Modern Cinema
  

*by T***M on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 21 January 2003*

Jean-Luc Godard's "A Bout de Souffle" or Breathless, is a milestone in modern cinema. He and cinematographer Raoul Coutard, pioneered the use of naturalistic lighting as opposed to the more standard Hollywood style of focusing on a certain object or person. The use of the jump-cut to advance the story is still used today, and the story of lovers-on-the-run, whilst nothing new, is told in a different light. The basic plot line is Michel, Jean-Paul Belmondo in his most famous role, steals a car, kills a cop and wants to go to Italy with his sometime girlfriend Patricia. He is owed money but has to wait until he can collect whilst all the time the police tighten their grip around him. Jean Seberg, who plays Patricia, also in her defining role, had already tried a career in America which didn't really amount to much, turned to Europe as her new start. Godard directed and produced this film during 1959 and it was his first major production after making some rather smaller scaled short films. This film could only have been released in 1960. Along with Psycho, it heralded a new era of film making, a more natural and less polished cinema. Whilst not the first of the "French New Wave" cinema, (Truffaut's "The 400 Blows" has that claim) but it is certainly the most influential.An important film not only in its structure and its look but also the use of improvised dialogue between two people which at times has practically nothing to do with the plot (see Tarantino for the most obvious example), which can be slightly tedious and repetative (hence the 4-star review) but does not deter from the spirit of the film.If you have any interest in the history of film and how cinema began to change its style towards a more unconventional way, you should own this film. The film is dedicated to cinema, and cinema since the release of this film has a lot to owe to Godard.
