Netflix has unveiled the first trailer for Richard Linklater ‘s “ Nouvelle Vague .”
The movie is a valentine to the making of Jean-Luc Godard’s iconic 1959 “Breathless,” and to the beginnings of the influential French new wave movement.
Shot on 35mm film in black-and-white by cinematographer David Chambille, the film stars Guillaume Marbeck as Jean-Luc Godard, Aubry Dullin as Jean-Paul Belmondo, and Zoey Deutch as New Wave darling Jean Seberg.
Linklater’s movie depicts the young Godard as a film critic at Les Cahiers du Cinema magazine; his feisty relationship with his producer Georges de Beauregard who grew frustrated with the young director’s eccentric methods and almost pulled the plug, and his camaraderie with other New Wave filmmakers such as Francois Truffaut and Jacques Rive
