frfilmtv1-5, Exercise 2: How the films were made

Model answer:

Four ways (any four): shooting on location in streets, cafés and flats instead of studio sets; lighter cameras and portable sound recorders and small crews; jump cuts and freer editing, with some improvisation; young actors who became stars (Jean-Pierre Léaud, Belmondo, Anna Karina, Jeanne Moreau); films that quote other films and admit they are films.

Two films with directors (any two): The 400 Blows (1959), Truffaut; Breathless (1960), Godard; Hiroshima mon amour (1959), Resnais; Cléo from 5 to 7 (1962), Varda; Le Beau Serge (1958), Chabrol.
