Directed by Jim McBride | 1983
With Richard Gere, Valérie Kaprisky, Art Metrano
“A wanton, playful film, belying the stated despair by its boiling energy.”
—Time Out London
Drunk on cinephilia, Jim McBride’s giddy remake of Godard’s 1960 New Wave landmark moves the action to a dreamland vision of LA, where comic book-obsessed car thief Jesse (Gere) and his lover (Kaprisky) try to outrun the cops. Bursting with neon-spattered visuals, references to classic film noir, and a rockabilly soundtrack of Jerry Lee Lewis and Link Wray, Breathless is an audacious exercise in pure style.
