It's hard to imagine an American independent film that suits the Cannes Red Carpet Premiere than Richard Linklater's film New Wave. Director Mavericks' black and white love letter to the French New Wave premiered in an ecstatic response at the Cannes Film Festival on Saturday night, drawing more than 10 minutes of applause from the black-tie crowd.
“The movie is magic,” Linklater said, and the applause finally began to diminish when the lights of the house floated into the cinema.
As the crowd began to clap in unison, the love letters from French cinemas began to applaud, and the upright applause began even before the lights came on.
Late at night, there are great expectations around Linklater's 23rd feature. The film was not screened before its premiere, as the director is said to prefer to see it on the big screen for the first time at the French premiere. The official summary of the film simply reads: “This is the story of Goda’s production. Can't breathetelling in Goda's style and spirit Can't breathe. ”
Shot on the 4:3 aspect ratio and told completely in French, Nouvelle's fuzzy star Guillaume Marbeck plays Jean-Luc Godard, Zoey Deutch, Godard's star Jean Seberg, and Aubry Dullin is Jean-Paul Belmondo. Linklater said his mission to the film is to "show an absolute love for the film."
Speaking of this, Arch-Cineaste Quentin Tarantino appeared in support of Linklater to pay tribute to Godard. The two directors were jointly famous in the 1990s during the wave of American independent films. Tarantino and Linklater shared a moment before the premiere, hugging in the cinema before the lights went off, which drew cheers from the crowd.
Despite being different from the theme of the film, while famously kind and at a loss, Linklater is right in many ways the Austin brothers can accept the spirit of revolutionary film inventions in France. In his 35-year career, it was a comedy drama from the slab budget Lazy (1990), Linklater continues to immerse himself in the conference, testing the formal boundaries of the medium. His photography covers adult comedy with generative definitions such as Dazed and Confused (1993), The Trilogy Before sunrise (1995), Before sunset (2004) and Before midnight (2013) - and Rock School (2003); Innovative animation functions Awakening life (2001) and Scanner dark (2006); Crime comedy and the presence of overtones, e.g. Bernie (2011) and Killer (2023); Period works Orson Wells and I (2008) and Blue Moon (2024); American masterpiece spanning ten years childhood (2014) et al.
New Wave Now, his first film is entirely filmed in France. The script comes from Vince Palmo, Michèle Halberstadt, Laetitia Masson and Holly Gent, while David Chambille handles photography. Paris-based sales broker Goodfellas is buying the project to Cannes International distributors.
Goddard's Can't breathe ((Unable to breathe1960), is one of the largest landmarks of the French New Wave. The film follows Michel Poiccard (Jean-Paul Belmondo), a small criminal who kills a policeman who is romantically entangled with Jean Seberg, a U.S. journalism student in Paris. Inspired by the American film Black, the film famously blends genre metaphors with radical styles. It marked Godard's debut and played Belmondo and Seberg's international reputation. It is not just a crime movie, it is seen as a declaration of cinematic rebellion. The Cannes premiere last Saturday night's movie audience may cheer for the legacy and Linklater's achievements.
