Breathless Ratings & Reviews
- Mister ArnMay 17, 2025The protagonist is an amoral hustler with charm I cannot seem to find, but the women love him. Everything in this film is a little disconnected and jolting, including the music, all fitting with the main character.
- cultfilmlikerApril 8, 2025“Do you think about death? I do. All the time.” “What’s ‘bonkers?’” “That’s me.” The handheld indie camerawork is lovely and seeing all the extras gawk at the crew is hilarious. Loved the editing especially regarding the dialogue-heavy scenes. Either inspired Noé or is just French lol The music is great and hits all the beats perfectly. Keeps it upbeat too! Often! Funniest earnest high-five in cinema Watched via Criterion Channel free week
