Netflix has won the race to secure a deal for director Richard Linklater’s latest film Nouvelle Vague following its debut at the Cannes Film Festival, in what is reportedly a record for a French-language film.
It’s been reported that the streaming giant paid $4m for the film which is a homage to the French New Wave classic Breathless (1960) by Jean-Luc Godard. Guillaume Marbeck plays the acclaimed director in a retelling of how his masterpiece was made.
