Happy Birthday Jean-Luc Godard! The French filmmaker was born in Paris, France on December 3rd, 1930.
A member of the Nouvelle Vague, or “French New Wave“, he is considered one of the most influential director to emerge from his era. His unconventional method of filmmaking, heavily influenced by existentialism and Marxist philosophy, inspired a slew of directors such as Quentin Tarantino, Martin Scorsese, Oliver Stone, John Woo & Brian De Palma. He will be 80 years old.
