French style meets existential Hollywood. Join us for two cinematic meditations on desire, ambition, and the art of making movies.
About NOUVELLE VAGUE:
A playful, poignant love letter to cinema, this film reimagines the making of Jean-Luc Godard’s BREATHLESS in an exuberant exploration of the youthful rebellion and creative chaos that shaped the French New Wave.
About CONTEMPT:
CONTEMPT (LE MÉPRIS) stars Michel Piccoli as a screenwriter torn between the demands of a proud European director (played by legendary director Fritz Lang), a crude and arrogant American producer (Jack Palance), and his disillusioned wife, Camille (Brigitte Bardot), as he attempts to doctor the script for a new film version of The Odyssey.
