A bout de souffle

To celebrate Jean-Luc Godard’s 50th anniversary of the 1960 film, Breathless, my friends and I saw a showing of it at the Music Box Theater last night.

Michel Poiccard’s character, played by Jean-Paul Belmondo, is a runaway car thief and police killer. With his abrupt remarks and natural charm he seeks every way possible to seduce Patricia Franchini, the American journalism student played by Jean Seberg, to escape to Italy with him.

As perfectly sexy as Belmondo was throughout the film, he wasn’t the only thing keeping my eyes pleasantly glued to the screen. Patricia Franchini’s character had the most impeccable style.

I decided to create my own inspiration board. Patricia Franchini meets 2010.
