Godard is angry and black (ESPECIALLY IN THIS MOVIE), whereas Truffaut, while cynical, still seems to be optimistic.

I liked Breathless and...well, I liked Breathless. Band of Outsiders (not on the list) was decent. <br /><br />I find a lot more to like in Truffaut. But I do get what you're saying about the French New Wave. I get why it's important, and breaking rules is fun and all, but with no rules, it just ends up being...stuff.SJHoneywellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550007053995112090noreply@blogger.com
