With its raw energy, rule-breaking style, and anything-goes crime narrative, Breathless follows small-time crook Michel (Jean-Paul Belmondo) and his American girlfriend Patricia (Jean Seberg) as they drift through Paris while he tries to finance their escape to Italy—until loyalty, love, and danger collide.
Effortlessly cool and radically modern, the film’s jump cuts, improvised feel, and magnetic performances helped launch the French New Wave and ensured that cinema would never be the same.
