Used to enjoy going to see Jean-Luc Godard's work down at the Electric Cinema with my arty girlfriend back in the day Breathless (French: À bout de souffle) is a classic == Also loved One Plus One aka Sympathy for the Devil, the Stones film Jean-Luc Godard, who has died aged 91, was one of the most influential directors in the history of cinema. The French-Swiss filmmaker found fame in the late 1950s as one of the leading figures in the French movement known as the New Wave, going on to direct dozens of films in a career lasting more than half a century

I've never seen any of Jean-Lucs films yet Lord E. I did get hold of a copy of Breathless last week though and I intend to watch it soon. I do watch some Italian subtitled films occasionally and have watched a few crime films of Alain Delon.
RIP Jean -Luc.

The Richard Gere remake Breathless is also worth seeing and makes an interesting companion piece Charles Both films still really stand up - not something I'd say about all his films, many of which are groundbreaking but a bit boring too

RIP Jean-Luc Godard - certainly was a rule breaker with film making. I haven't see the original Breathless yet and sounds like of those films you "Must see in your lifetime". Didn't know about the Richard Gere remake actually.
