Breathless (region-A Blu-ray)

Co-writer and director Jim McBride (David Holzman’s Diary, Great Balls of Fire) and co-writer L.M. Kit Carson (Paris, Texas, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2) boldly set out to create an American version of Jean-Luc Godard’s groundbreaking debut Breathless and the result is a wildly energetic and imaginative neo-noir romance that has become a cult classic. The spirited supporting cast includes memorable character players John P. Ryan, Garry Goodrow, Art Metrano, James Hong, Miguel Pinero, William Tepper & Lisa Jane Persky. With its rockin’ and atmospheric soundtrack, candy-colored cinematography by Richard H. Kline (Body Heat) and production design by Richard Sylbert (Chinatown), as well as the uncommonly strong sexual chemistry of its leads, Breathless is truly a cinematic feast for the senses. Ahead of its time when released, viewers have finally caught up to Breathless and now it’s been restored in 2K from its 35mm interpositive and presented with an alternate ending that's been unseen for decades!
