4.0 out of 5 stars Breathless Review, 12 July 2009
By Brendan O. Clarke "brendoclarke" (Edinburgh) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This 1959 moovie is quite boring at times. There is a long boring sequence of Jean Paul Belmondo and his American girlfriend talking inane banter in her apartment; all the while drinking coffee and smoking cigarettes.

Godard's 1959 directing debut was all about style over substance, and the story (to the extent that there was one) is almost incidental. Needless to say, that didn't stop Hollywood from doing a slick remake starring Richard Gere 24 years later. Time has not been good to this movie. It probably only deserves 4 stars. Worth a look.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another Godard Box, 2 Aug 2007
By HJ (London UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
In a perfect world we would get three or four Godard box sets, rounding up all his major films, like we've had for Herzog, Bunuel & Cassavetes. Unfortunately we tend instead to get the same few films endlessly repackaged in different illogical combinations (Breathless here is simultaneously re-released in a Belmondo box set!). However, for what it is, this latest box is pretty good: 4 films, the packaging isn't too tacky & there's a few shorts & docs and a fifth "Godard Encore" disc, which is really just filler but does include a lengthy film of JLG interviewing Fritz Lang. Colin MacCabe pops up here & there to say a few words which may or may not be a good thing depending on your point of view. As for the actual films: Breathless & Alphaville look great ("remastered") & are new wave classics which surely need no introduction. Made in the USA was a flop film from 66, a tired rehash of Pierrot la Fou made under the strain of Anna Karina & JLG splitting up, however the film is growing on me & will appeal to Godard fanatics. Those same fanatics will have to buy this box for Passion, which I don't think has appeared before on dvd in UK. Passion is an 80s "comeback" movie & so seems out of place in this box, but stands up well, perhaps his last great film, similar to Slow Motion & Tout va Bien (both recently released on dvd), though it might infuriate those averse to Godard's "difficult" late films.
