MUBI Podcast: "Breathless"—Jean Seberg & Jean-Luc Godard Dress Down Film and Fashion

Our latest season “Tailor Made” dives into the worlds of film and fashion and kicks off with Jean Seberg’s liberating style in "Breathless."
MUBI Podcast

Jean-Luc Godard's Breathless (1960) is now streaming on MUBI in Italy and Turkey.

In 1959, a brash critic-turned-filmmaker named Jean-Luc Godard cast movie star Jean Seberg in his first film, Breathless. You probably know it revolutionized movies, but it also had a big impact on fashion, onscreen and off—by seeming like it wasn’t even trying.

With the help of historians and critics, host Rico Gagliano decodes Seberg’s “French Girl” style…and also gives you a peek into his ’70s disco wardrobe. Seriously.

Season 5, titled "Tailor Made," dives deep into the worlds of film and fashion. Each episode tackles a landmark movie that captured a major fashion look of an era, and then decodes what that look meant—to the culture that spawned it, the people who wore it, and the audiences who watched it on screen.
