Nouvelle Vague Reviews

SNOOZE trying to highlight on the french wave of filmmaking but does literally nothing interesting.

not my usual film but good

In Paris, 1959, a French sunglasses-wearing, sardonic film critic and his friends revolutionised cinema forever and left everyone Breathless

Could not get through

All I want for Christmas is a New York Herald Tribune knit sweater

Man, this is beautiful. Being completely honest, I hate netflix a lot right now, they make beautiful films but don’t allow us to enjoy them at the place where they are supposed to be enjoyed.

Based on this, if I met Goddard irl…I think I’d smack him

A joyous love-letter not just to new wave but to filmmaking as a whole. Linklater abandons his style and adopts theirs, seamlessly recreating and adapting to their means. Cast are dead ringers for the people they play; lot of fun, especially as a fan of this filmmaking movement.

Lovely godard pastiche depicting the creation of arguably his best/most famous work. The casting was spot on. Was only loosely familiar with some of the names, but it didn’t take away from my enjoyment. Came out of it with a deeper appreciation for breathless.

j'adore toujours autant les films en noir et blanc ! je trouve que ça donne une âme différente aux images
