A shoe-string production, based on an outline by Francois Truffaut, who had made a splash the previous year with his own debut, The 400 Blows, Breathless starred the American Jean Seberg and the then-unknown boxer, Jean-Paul Belmondo, and was shot in DIY-fashion on the streets of Paris. The film follows the young JLG as he battles financiers, convention, and improvisational chaos to realise his vision. Linklater captures the frenetic energy, and guerrilla-style techniques of the era, using a vintage aesthetic to evoke a movement that changed cinema forever.
