Directed by Jean-Luc Godard
The run of 8 movies Godard filmed between A Bout de Souffle and Two Or Three Things I Know About Her are frequently cited as the greatest consecutive sequence a director has ever filmed. The former film kicked off the French New Wave with a bang, whilst his later, more avant-garde works remain fresh and challenging. Often very political in his work, and a skilled exponent of Marxist rhetoric, he is one of the great French film-makers. Recommended Films directed by Jean-Luc Godard
