Breathless
si vous n'aimez pas la mer, si vous n'aimez pas la montagne, si vous n'aimez pas la ville, allez vous faire foutre
it is one of the first films of nouvelle vague that I have ever seen and it has become one of my favorite ones. i find it soft and spontaneous and it looks almost unrehearsed, but it is also very well planned. the off-narrative, on the context reframing through an unspecified angling of the camera, the cut-up editing create that spirit in which despite being released decades back, the movie still seems believable and contemporary
michel stands as an icon of rebellion, headstrong, indifferent to conformity, he’s looking for something within himself.
his relationship with patricia is interesting because it’s full of ups and downs. its not the classic cinematic romance, but a more complex connection, almost a constant alternation between strength and vulnerability

que vous êtes une femme dégueulasse
c'est quoi dégueulasse?*
