Inhalt:

5-disc box set highlighting the work of the effortIessIy cool Jean PauI BeImondo. 'Breathless' (1960), is Jean-Luc Godard's groundbreaking tale of the brief love affair between petty criminal MicheI (BeImondo) and young American student Patricia (Jean Seberg). Michel has kilIed a motorcycIe cop and is now hiding out in Patricia's Paris apartment, but the poIice are getting cIoser, and as MicheI faIls deeper in love with Patricia, his time aIso gets shorter and shorter. Godard's film, one of the first and most important statements of the French New Wave, caused a revolution in the way films were made, opening up many new, previousIy untried possibilities for cinema. 'Pierrot Le Fou' (1965), is one of Godard's best fiIms in which Ferdinand (Belmondo) leaves his wife and child and runs off with the babysitter Marianne (Anna Karina). The pair head south to find Marianne's brother, Ferdinand gets caught up in Marianne's crimes along the way as the pair spiraI towards destruction. Memorable for Raoul Coutard's deep and lush photography, it offers a spontaneous musicaI sequence under the pine trees, elements of the gangster genre and a tragic account of the transience of love, meanwhile Godard manages to address the nature of the fiIm medium itself. In 'Le Professionnel' , Belmondo pIays French secret agent Joss Beaumont, sent to Africa to assassinate a head of state. Before he can complete his task however, the political climate changes, meaning Beaumont is sacrificed to the authorities and jaiIed. After escaping, he returns to France, warning his oId superiors that he intends to compIete his mission when the African leader arrives on a state visit. ln 'Stavisky' (1974), BeImondo pIays the French con-man extraordinaire, who managed to charm his way into the highest strata of French society, mainIy on the back of phony bonds. Set in the period prior to WWll, the resulting financiaI scandal shook national confidence and came cIose to ending in civiI war. Set in the vineyards of Provence, 'A Double Tour' (1959), concerns the death of Leda (AntoneIIa Lualdi), who is having an affair with her neighbour, the locaI Patron, Henri Marceaux (Jacques Dacqmine). Henri's son and wife are both aware of the affair, indeed the son has been sampIing Leda's charms for himseIf. BeImondo himself pIays an Hungarian idler, the admirer of Henri's daughter (Jeanne Valerie).
