godard's "breathless" was a humorous satire of action movies and love stories (among many other things). the fact that "breathless" was remade with richard gere (!!) further proves how shallow and meanless most hollywood movies are. godard's "breathless" was never meant to be taken seriously and by doing so, this remake illustrates all the points godard was trying to make without even realizing it.
bottom line: this film should only be watched in conjunction with the original, and even then only for film education. on its own, this film is so bad, it doesn't even have CAMP value!!
