Nouvelle Vague - Richard Linklater

Nouvelle Vague is Oscar-nominated director Richard Linklater's love letter to the revolutionary magic of the French New Wave, reimagining the making of Jean-Luc Godard's À bout de souffle, which ultimately cemented Godard as a pioneer of global cinema. As critic turned director Godard makes and breaks the rules, a mix of fresh faces and daring talents – including Zoey Deutch as Jean Seberg, Aubry Dullin as Jean-Paul Belmondo, and Guillaume Marbeck as Godard – bring his spontaneous, electric film to life. Capturing the youthful dynamism and creative chaos at the heart of one of the world's most beloved and influential movies, Nouvelle Vague transports us to the streets of 1959 Paris for an ode to the transformative power of cinema.

Richard Linklater is an American self-taught filmmaker, known for his influential independent films such as Dazed and Confused, the Before trilogy, and Boyhood. Born in Houston, Texas, he founded the Austin Film Society in 1985 to support independent filmmaking.
