  • @mamakunem Had Godard wanted someone who spoke flawless French he would have cast a French actress. She's an American speaking French and of course she is going to have an accent.In any case I love her accent !

  • @mamakunem She's supposed to be American in the film...and no more ridiculous when French try to speak with an English accent...

  • Je suis fatigue, TRES fatigue, et je ME recouch!!

  • @AndreVerGotti I love that part!

  • @mamakunem It's meant to be on purpose. This is a fantastic scene though, the interraction is phenomenal!

  • He's so gorgeous it HURTS. She's SO annoying - her accent is almost unbearable.

  • im in love with a dead girl...

  • Me mata Jean Paul Belmondo en esta película!!

  • I'm from her hometown! Marshalltown, Iowa

  • @Padmakshya She's supposed to be American, not French.  An American with a bad French accent trying to play a French person would be terrible. An American playing an American with a bad French accent is just realism.

  • @kikiteka Nicely said, couldn't agree with you more. Happy birthday Mr Truffaut! Would have been 80 today! Great script, lovely cast ... wonderful movie!

  • I want to sleep with you again.

    Why?

    Because you're beautiful.

    No i'm not.

    Then because you're ugly.

  • Please make this embeddable.

  • to me the best part of the film, and they both were so sexy,

  • @klaralarick32 This isn't a trailer.

  • Jean Seaberg... gorgeous!!

  • Does anyone know where I can find french subtitles for this movie?

  • I want to get the cigarettes smoked in this movie but they are hard to find..

  • I went to see her grave once. It's at Cimitière du Montparnasse in Paris. I had to place a flower there. Serge Gainsbourg is in the same cemetery. I gave him something too. Many, many celebrities rest here.

  • I love this movie. It was revolutionary when it came out in 1960, and is still very, very good.

  • Wahnsinn Freunde! Ich hatte gestern am vormittag meine erste Auszahlung bekommen aufs Bankkonto von meinem unglaublichem Netz Minijob! Es ist so lustig und kann die Arbeit alles von der Uni aus machen! Mit nur sauwenigen Arbeitesstunden Arbeit pro Tag ist es möglich bis zu 2700 € Monat für Monat nebenbei zu machen! Kuckt das System euch bitte ganz kurz an weil wirklich lange wird es nicht mehr laufen. Ich kann keine Web Adressen hinterlassen doch klickt direkt auf mck-team# com

  • why is this called hotel scene when they're in her apartment...

  • @peacelovephoebe Because Patricia lives in a hotel in the film.

  • "Can I piss in the sink?/J'peux pisser dans le lavabo?"

    I do that all the time!

  • About five years ago I was having dinner in Brasserie Lipp in Paris when Belmondo arrived at the restaurant with his little dog and two women. His charisma was such that the whole place stopped and went completely silent for a second or two. He appeared to be seven feet tall. He was very gracious and quietly went to sit at his table. Before that incident it would never had occurred to me that he had such an overwhelming presence.

  • I can see why they renamed it "Breathless" for American audiences.

    "About the Soufle" just doesn't capture the attention.

  • He's hot! I'd sleep with him again if he wanted to :P

  • The guy is FIIIIINE! (howl whistle), now I want to live in 1960 just to have a chance to tap that ;)

  • @verbliner il vit encore

  • jean paul belmondo is ugly what a nose

  • @SUNMAYDEN518 I've heard him described as 'ugly cute' and I'd say it fits. Besides, attraction ain't just in looks.

  • this entire film is just jean seberg saying juuhn ssaaaay paaaa in an annoying accent. michel is the man though.

  • hot and quick-witted:)

  • damn this guy is one cool motherfucker.

  • Hah; I mean Jean Luc Godard. How foolish of me! It seems you can't remove comments anymore if you make a mistake.

  • Resnais was a master filmmaker; and Jean Seberg is absolutely talented and gorgeous.

  • @22DexterFan But this film was directed by Jean-Luc Godard.

  • @MowgliX Yes immediately afterward I corrected that mistake, adding a second comment.

  • @22DexterFan I don't see it! Maybe it wasn't saved on YouTube. Sometimes it is very buggy...

  • @22DexterFan Jean Seberg was hounded by the FBI, even abroad in Europe, and she went crazy, poor thing. She killed herself in 1979, or so they say. I'd say she was probably murdered by her boyfriend at the time. She was found dead in a car in a Paris suburb, but she had hardly been driving after an overdose of sleeping pills...

  • @MowgliX That's positively awful!

  • @22DexterFan Yes it is. And there is a lot more to this story. You will find the whole thing at Wikipedia. Just search for Jean Seberg and there it is. Her former husband, Romain Gary, also killed himself one year after her death, among other things. And since she was such an iconic actress, so gifted and so miserable, I felt it was a good idea to visit her grave in Paris. It is very easy to find, near the entrance from a metro station called Edgar Quinet. You will find that too at Wikipedia.

  • women can be very feminine with a pixi cut, dont let men tell you other wise!!

  • Could you upload the whole movie with English subtitles?

  • go buy it. dont be a cheap asshole, show the movie some respect.

  • jean seberg inspired me to cut my hair short. she's amazing, and this movie is simply wonderful

  • I usually don't go for foriegn flims, but Breathless was surprisingly interesting and engaging.

  • what cigarettes is he smoking i wonder its funny hes not smokin chesterfields seeings how bogart his idol did...

  • no matter what camera geeks say, it is IMPOSSIBLE to get this kind of smoky atmosphere on digital video.

    never mind that actors this interesting don't exist anymore.

    jean seberg might be one of the most beautiful women in movie history

  • This movie is great, can you believe they did a remake in the 80's with Richard Gere? Horrible.

  • Biagiotti - I actually like the remake, even though I'd never compare the two.

    I mean, it's a dumb, new wave 80s movie, but it's sort of entertaining

  • @MKUltra3 I'm very curious about your opinion. I have a "camera geek" friend who is very high on the technological advances of digital, as well as the money-saving element. I'm inclined to agree with you (I write plays, but have been contemplating going into film production) but I'd like to hear you elaborate on your opinion. What about film shot on 16mm and blown up to 35? How do you feel about that? Please respond! Thanks.

  • @goback - well, this is a two pronged attack on my part - I think most modern actors have that narcissistic, exhibitionistic, myspace superstar self-involvement thing going on, always aware of and lusting for a camera's attention, unlike more nuanced, subtle actors of half a century ago...and...although I really like the look of Red cameras (see Soderbergh's The Girlfriend Experience), its hypercrisp look, even altered in post, is no match for 16 or 35mm film's mood setting abilities...

  • I love her...she was definitely hot

  • J-P's "Michel" character in this movie was a hoot. This film was funny, enjoyable and easy to watch. It's nice to watch a piece of work that's unlike the mainstream, knowing that at least there was clear intent behind the choppy editing cuts, etc, as opposed to the incompetence of someone like, say, Ed Wood. Alphaville - although frequently confusing - is my other Godard film favourite with another great lead (who was funny too, but in a more miserly way): E. Constantine. Thx for posting!

  • Innovative movie!

    Godard (director) was well ahead of his time!

  • I want this haircut and I am going to start brushing my eyebrows with a hairbrush.

  • @Ruthk23 I have this haircut..so,I just need the hairbrush for my eyebrows :P

  • @Ruthk23 Same here!
