Nouvelle Vague Film Screening in Cambridge

This special screening brings Richard Linklater's Nouvelle Vague to Cambridge, offering a cinematic deep dive into the making of Jean-Luc Godard's Breathless. The film follows Godard, François Truffaut, and Claude Chabrol as they navigate the birth of the French New Wave, with Guillaume Marbeck portraying Godard and Zoey Deutch as Jean Seberg.

Attendees can expect a vivid portrayal of the chaotic production of Breathless, from Godard's guerilla filmmaking style to the tensions on set. The film also features cameos by Jean-Pierre Melville and a cast of characters from the Cahiers du Cinéma circle.

Nouvelle Vague premiered at Cannes and earned Linklater a César Award for Best Director. This Cambridge event offers a chance to experience the film on the big screen.
