Jean Seberg (1938-1979) was an American and French actress, and a champion of compassion, equality and kindness. She was from a "small town" in Iowa and became the darling of Paris. She alternated between European art films ("The Five-Day Lover," "Dead of Summer") and big Hollywood movies ("Paint Your Wagon," "Airport"), on the way helping Jean-Luc Godard to shape contemporary cinema ("Breathless"). Seberg moved between the worlds of show business and politics, from private and state dinners with leaders to clandestine activities supporting groups and individuals on both sides of the Atlantic. For one whose hope was a better life for those less fortunate, she found herself ultimately destroyed by one powerful institution (the FBI) manipulating another (the news media)."Jean Seberg -- Breathless" tells the story of this unique icon of the French New Wave. Featuring more than thirty photographs and selections from Seberg's private letters and poems, Garry McGee traces Seberg's personal, professional and artistic life through exclusive interviews with several people who knew the woman, some who have never spoken publicly until now.Rich in detail, "Jean Seberg -- Breathless" is the definitive portrait of an international icon whose story has never been told fully or justly until now.
