    Change Submitted by David Beckett

    List of Changes:

    • Title changed from Breathless: 50th Anniversary to Breathless (UK)
    • Change #1 -  Celebrating 50 years of cool, Jean-Luc Godard’s [b]BREATHLESS: 50TH Anniversary[/b] premiered at Berlin before receiving a digital re-release in UK cinemas June 25th. Based on a story by François Truffaut and photographed by New Wave legend Raoul Coutard, with no less a crime specialist than Claude Chabrol as technical advisor, Godard’s jazzy riff on American Film Noir features iconic performances from Belmondo, as the on-the-run Bogart-inspired small-time hood, and Seberg as his [i]Herald Tribune-[/i]hawking American student girlfriend, who ultimately betrays him. With a pace that’s non-stop, [b]BREATHLESS [/b]reinvented the grammar of movies and almost instantly changed the course of international filmmaking. With Godard still going strong and about to release a new film: [i]Socialisme[/i], let’s celebrate where it all began, with Jean-Paul Belmondo and Jean Seberg effortlessly stylish and in love in Paris, in the coolest film ever made.• Introduction by Jefferson Hack, creator &amp; publisher of Dazed &amp; Confused magazine <newline>• Rarely seen interview with Jean-Luc Godard by Mike Hodges from UK arts show Tempo (1965) <newline>• Short film: Je T’Aime John Wayne directed by Toby MacDonald <newline>• Featurette on the life of Jean SebergPG87£19.99Full Frame 1.33:1Dolby Digital 2.0 Mono FrenchEnglishJean-Luc GodardJean-Luc GodardFrançois TruffautJean-Paul BelmondoJean SebergHenri-Jacques HuetJean-Pierre MelvilleDaniel BoulangerJean SebergMartial SolalRaoul CoutardLila HermanCécile DecugisClaude ChabrolGeorges de BeauregardOptimum ClassicDEAAAAAAGBHIZjpgYJIEG Landmark French movie that turns the tragi-comic story of a minor crim (Belmondo), obsessed with both Bogart and an aspiring American journo (Seberg), into a major masterpiece of fickle hedonism.
