Richard Linklater's Ode to the French New Wave Enchants Cannes
- Richard Linklater premiered his French-language film Nouvelle Vague at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, where it received an 11-minute standing ovation.
- Linklater developed the film over thirteen years as an homage to Jean-Luc Godard's 1959 classic Breathless, aiming to recreate the era without remaking the original.
- The film stars Guillaume Marbeck as Godard, Zoey Deutch as Seberg, and Aubry Dullin as Belmondo, capturing the improvisational style and black-and-white 4:3 visuals of the period.
- Quentin Tarantino attended multiple screenings and helped lead the applause, while Linklater said he wanted to show "the absolute love of cineastes."
- Nouvelle Vague will screen worldwide except in France and highlights the spirit of cinephilia and filmmaking rooted in the French New Wave movement.
