About the Item

We adore this original first-year-of-release country-of-origin poster for Jean-Luc Godard's seminal New Wave classic A Bout de Souffle (Breathless). Arguably one of the best films ever made, and we think Hurel's bold and beautiful design deserves the same acclaim. It simply leaves us breathless. In A Bout de Souffle, Jean-Paul Belmondo stars as a wandering criminal named Michel, and Jean Seberg as his American girlfriend Patricia. The film was Godard's first feature-length work and represented Belmondo's breakthrough as an actor. A Bout de Souffle is an influential example of French New Wave (nouvelle vague) cinema. Along with François Truffaut's The 400 Blows and Alain Resnais's Hiroshima mon amour, both released a year earlier, it brought international attention to new styles of French filmmaking. This original vintage movie poster has been professionally linen-backed and is sized 46 3/4 x 63 inches (plus a a couple more inches for the linen). It will be sent rolled (unframed). Year: 1960 Poster Type: French Grande Style: - Art By: Clement Hurel Rolled/Folded/Other: Rolled Linen-backed
