SYNOPSIS:  
After contributing to Cahiers du cinéma, a young Godard concludes that making films is the ultimate form of film criticism. He secures funding from Beauregard to produce a low-budget feature and collaborates with Truffaut on a treatment about a couple of gangsters.  

French Cinema in the late 1950s and early 1960s sent shockwaves that continue to resonate today. Filmmakers like François Truffaut, Agnes Varda, Jean Pierre Melville, and notably Jean Luc Godard, transformed the perceptions of audiences and critics regarding cinema. This movement, known as the New Wave (Nouvelle Vague), is now honored by Richard Linklater in Nouvelle Vague.  

The film portrays Godard (Guillaume Marbeck), Truffaut, and others as they work on Breathless, a landmark film of the movement. Linklater crafts the film to resemble a lost New Wave picture, infused with the energy, enthusiasm, and style characteristic of early 1960s French films. However, the question remains: is it style over substance or a genuine tribute?  

The story begins with a group of critics from Cahiers du Cinéma, aspiring directors themselves, discussing their transition into filmmaking at Cannes. Shortly thereafter, Truffaut (Adrien Rouyard) experiences tremendous success with The 400 Blows. Godard decides it's time to direct, with Truffaut helping to write. This marks the beginning of Breathless, characterized by limited takes and a vibrant energy; the chaotic filming was driven by the spontaneous director, even on his debut feature, as he strayed from the script.  

This film is a heartfelt tribute to the cinema of that time, filled with references not just to Breathless but also to other directors and later works by Godard. The style resembles that of a documentary, complete with name cards each time a notable figure from the movement appears, and Linklater captures their likenesses remarkably well. He successfully emulates the structural style of those films, making this a captivating and exceptionally stylish offering, perhaps to a fault. While it is slightly more structured than some New Wave films, it features a marvelous jazz soundtrack that maintains the rhythm. At times it may feel overwhelmed by its own references and loyalty to the filmmakers it admires, compounded by the numerous cameos and nods.  

Although the homages will surely delight fans of that era, they might be overlooked by casual viewers. Nevertheless, Godard's impulsiveness and influence are expertly portrayed through Guillaume Marbeck's strong central performance. Zoey Deutch is effectively cast as Jean Seberg, co-star of Breathless, who is taken aback by the disorganized approach of the shooting process.  

Perhaps the most impressive aspect of Nouvelle Vague is how seamlessly Linklater handles a French-language film. It's clearly a passion project for him, exuding charm and a sense of playfulness. While it may not be as revolutionary as the films it pays homage to, there is still much to appreciate in Linklater's affectionate tribute to French Cinema.
