Synopsis
Two pulp-fiction-obsessed young Parisian loafers convince an innocent English-class student to help them burgle a cache of hidden cash from her aunt's villa in a suburban suburb. Jean-Luc Godard's effervescent, melancholic love letter to American B-movies famous for the Madison line dance in a cafe and the madcap sprint through the Louvre.
