Breathless / A Bout De Souffle (1988R)

An original 1988 UK re-release Recorded Releasing Black and White Publicity Still, unframed.

Jean-Paul Belmondo and Jean Seberg as Michel and Patricia, from the film's famous hotel-room sequence.

Raoul Coutard shot Breathless on fast stills film, spliced into long rolls, so that he could work in real rooms with little more than the daylight from the window. Godard often wrote the day's dialogue that morning and, with no live sound recorded, called out lines to his actors during takes. This press still was issued for the 1988 UK re-release, with light foxing to the top left corner.
