We continue our trip Around the World in Twenty Films with a stop in France, where we look at a couple of films largely from the criminals' point of view.
We start with 1960's Breathless, Jean-Luc Godard's innovative film starring Jean-Paul Belmondo and Jean Sebring. Belmondo plays a criminal on the run who spends some time hiding out with an old girlfriend. Some of the foreign posters kind of give away the ending to this film, but it's doubtful that this conclusion would come as a big surprise to most viewers, anyway.
In Part Two we jump to 1970 to review Le Cercle Rouge.
