Synopsis
Without a doubt one of the most important films to emerge as part of the "New Wave" that developed in France during the early sixties, Breathless, literally rewrote the grammar of film and established that the manner in which a story is told can be more important than the story itself. Jean-Paul Belmondo's first major role, a parody of Humphrey Bogart's anarchic gangster, made him justifiably famous. The innovative structure of this film has had a substantial impact on the evolution of modern film language.
