À bout de souffle (Breathless) - Jean Luc Godard - Car Scene - Jean Paul Belmondo / Jean Seberg

What happened to the Ford?

lt's in the garage.

Let me stay with you.

l've got a headache.

We won't make love.
l just wanna be with you.

That's not it, Michel!
Why are you so sad?

Because l am.

lt's silly.

Why are you so sad?
Should l use ''vous'' or ''tu''?

No difference...
But l can't do without you.

Yes, you can.

Maybe. But l don't want to.

Just look at that great Talbot.
A 2.5 litre.

- You're a kid...

- What?

Oh, l dunno.

Look at me.
l forbid you to meet this chap.
Alas, alas, alas!

l have a girl who has a nice neck,
nice breasts, a nice voice...
nice wrists...
a nice forehead...
nice knees...

But she's such a coward!

@adamdyerseve It's just my desire to be a dick on the internet confronting my desire to explain things to people. I find YouTube is a particular well-suited venue for it. ;)

@matteyes1 hey, do you by chance suffer from a Dissociative-Identity-Disorder­?

thanks anyway :)

@adamdyerseve Just look it up instead of writing some inane comment on YouTube and looking like a fucking idiot.

But just because I'm nice, imagine the line below is a strip of film, and the Xs are a part that's been cut out. So you go from:

|=====XXXXX=====|

to:

|=====/=====|

Where the slash is the moment of the jump cut. The same SHOT, the camera never changes position, it doesn't stop filming and start again. Just a middle section has been removed. Godard did this like crazy.
