FRENCH NEW WAVE



French New Wave, a film style that was developed in 1958 and grew until about 1964. It's a much more nonchalant compared to Americas Hollywood, and that was the point. French, also Italian, film makers had a negative view on Hollywoods "Mary Sue" style of film. Most characters are "ass holes" to quote French new wave film "Breathless." The main character Michel is more like a Hollywood antagonist then the main character. The shots where also very different the camera was not the main focal point, the camera just "hangs out," the actors can look into it, look around, underneath, it really didn't matter.
