A Behind-the-Scenes Look at Linklater's 'Nouvelle Vague' & Its Cast

"You go through the world like a general, but you don't have an army." Netflix has debuted an extensive 5 minute behind-the-scenes featurette for Richard Linklater's fantastic experimental indie creation Nouvelle Vague, a look back at the French New Wave in the 1960s & Jean-Luc Godard's first film Breathless. This excellent homage to cinema is already playing on Netflix - it's streaming now (view here). This tells the story of Godard making Breathless, told in the same style & spirit in which Godard made Breathless 65 years ago. In order to keep with the spirit of the French New Wave, the young French actors are all newcomers. For example, while he plays the key part of Jean-Luc Godard, it's the first feature film of Guillaume Marbeck. The cast includes Zoey Deutch as Jean Seberg, Aubry Dullin as Jean-Paul Belmondo, Paolo Luka Noé, Alix Bénézech, and Jade Phan-Gia. In this Netflix promo video, director Richard Linklater, actress Zoey Deutch, casting director Stéphane Batut, and the rest of the film's cast take us inside what it took to cast Nouvelle Vague and how the film paid tribute to Jean Luc Godard's iconic film and all the trailblazers of the "New Wave". Truly impressive how they pulled this off & how he found these actors who look just like them. // Continue Reading ›
