A Band of Outsiders

I watched several movies over Christmas. I wish that I would have chronicled them, but it's too late now. I will move on to this week.

This is the first Godard film I've ever seen. I loved the characters. They seemed so cool. It's a story of a couple of young french guys who convince a pretty girl to help them steal her aunt's fortune. Unlike most heist films, there are no intensely dramatic scenes. Everything seems so casual and nonchalant, which makes me believe these guys would actually be capable of pulling this off.

I've seen aspects of this movie referenced in modern movies (the running through the Louvre scene in The Dreamers). It was nice to see what it was referencing
