🇫🇷🎬 NOUVELLE VAGUE
Details
🎭 A fresh wave with a unique lens, offering a heartfelt love letter to French cinema.
👋 Hello, everyone! We’ll be meeting for a relaxed evening at the BFI Southbank—starting with drinks and then watching Richard Linklater’s latest comedy-drama, Nouvelle Vague. It had a stellar run at last year’s BFI London Film Festival, earning high praise from both critics and audiences—so if you missed it, this is your perfect chance to catch this limited run!
The film is a playful, meta reimagining of Jean-Luc Godard’s iconic debut, offering a nostalgic nod to the rebellious French New Wave. And of course, Linklater brings his signature themes—suburban life and the passage of time—into the mix, making this a fascinating watch.
Since it’s a weekday late-night showing, we’ll meet for drinks first, head into Screen NFT1, and then wrap up with a quick Letterboxd Review after.
Let’s embrace this New Wave in style—I’m looking forward to seeing you all there!
