Its original French title is "À bout de souffle" which translates more nearly to "at breath's end."

▲''Breathless'' is a 1960 film directed by [[Jean-Luc Godard]], in his feature film-making debut. Its original French title is "À bout de souffle" which translates more nearly to "at breath's end." Along with [[Francois Truffaut]]'s ''[[The Adventures of Antoine Doinel|The 400 Blows]]'' and Alain Resnais' ''Hiroshima, Mon Amour'', it gained attention for the [[French New Wave]].
The basic plot is fairly simple, seasoned by Godard with pop-cultural meta-commentary and Paris travelogue. Petty criminal Michel steals a car and, seeing that a policeman is following him on motorcycle, shoots said cop. He then flees to Paris and hides out with his American girlfriend. Eventually after she learns that he is a fugitive, she turns him in to the police. After a chase through the city on foot, he is shot and killed.
