Entertainment Reviews:
Exhilarating... Godard uses his camera with the freedom of the gifted amateur who is innocent of all the conventions that the professionals have developed to take the edge off visual reality.

...[An] homage to American B movies. -- Rating: A
Entertainment Weekly
...Forty years on and BREATHLESS remains a stylistic tour de force...
Total Film
BREATHLESS is about the zeitgeist, and Godard's script is uncannily prescient of the social and sexual upheavals of the ensuing decade.
Uncut
Rating: 10/10 --
Indisputably on the shortlist of Movies You Need To See if you're going to have a proper conception of cinema history and the potential of cinematic form.

Antagony & Ecstasy
A hip, jokey thriller in which the sketchy plot serves as an excuse for stylistic flourishes and philosophical asides.

Product Description:
Godard's first feature has been widely hailed as one of the most influential motion pictures ever made. On the run after killing a cop, a small-time crook (Belmondo) hides out in Paris with an American girl (Seberg). After she betrays him, he chooses to face his fate with an absurd stoicism modelled on his hero, Humphrey Bogart. BREATHLESS is the arguable cornerstone of the French New Wave, exhibiting the trademark documentary shooting style, natural sound design, and thematic interest in the detritus of American popular culture. (Rereleased theatrically in April, 2000.)
