IMDb profile

Charlotte et son Jules (English: Charlotte and her boyfriend) is a 1960 film by Franco-Swiss director Jean-Luc Godard. It is shot entirely in or from Godard's hotel room, in which Belmondo's Jules gives Collette's Charlotte a seemingly endless and self-indulgent tirade on her faults and his tribulations. Belmondo's voice is in fact dubbed by Godard.

It is a homage to Jean Cocteau's successful one-act play Le Bel Indifférent, where the roles are opposite.

It can now be seen on the Criterion disk of Breathless.
