[Machine Translation] [KADOKAWA Western Film Selection] A monumental work of the eternally new Nouvelle Vague! Subtitles translated by Jiro Terao and supervised by Koichi Yamada! Godard's debut feature film, which shocked the world and rewrote the history of cinema with its free and uninhibited style of filmmaking that overturned conventional ideas of what a film should be. --Michel steals a car in Marseille, and on his way to Paris, he shoots and kills a motorcycle policeman who is chasing him. Upon arriving in Paris, a detective begins following Michel as he meets his girlfriend, Patricia, an American exchange student... This is the first commercial feature film to use the "jump cut" (editing by skipping the middle of the action), which was taboo at the time but is now common practice. Godard himself plays the role of the man who informs on Michel, and the director Jean-Pierre Melville plays the novelist. The film won the Silver Bear for Best Director at the 1960 Berlin International Film Festival and the Jean Vigo Award in 1960.
