Put in your berets and eat some baguettes as a result of we’re going to France. Properly, not likely, however in case you watch Nouvelle Obscure, Richard Linklater’s back-and-white love letter to French cinema, you’ll really feel as in case you’re strolling alongside the Seine River.
Within the movie, 29-year-old movie critic Jean-Luc Godard (Guillaume Marbeck) is fed up with watching films — he needs to make one. He rapidly finds out that’s not really easy, so he calls on his critic buddies, a temperamental main man, Jean-Paul Belmondo (Aubry Dullin), and a younger American actress, Jean Seberg (Zoey Deutch), seeking to revive her already stagnant profession, to assist him out.

Nouvelle Obscure doesn’t fairly attain these heights, nevertheless it’s a enjoyable and playful look again at cinematic historical past.
