Characters in the nostalgic love letter to cinema, which is told in the style and spirit that Godard made Breathless, include the aforementioned legends as well as Claude Chabrol, François Truffaut, Suzanne Schiffman and Raoul Coutard. In the film's production notes, Linklater says, 'This is not about remaking Breathless, but looking at it from another angle. I want to dive into 1959 with my camera and recreate the era, the people, the atmosphere. I want to hang out with the New Wave crowd. I told all the actors: 'You are NOT making a period film. You are living in the moment. Godard is a well-known critic, but he's a first-time director. You're having fun shooting with him, but you're wondering if this film will ever be released.''
