Top 10 French Movies

Sexy Jean Seberg plays a young American girl in love with a petty thief in Jean-Luc Godard's Nouvelle Vague favorite 'Breathless'

Where would modern film be today without the revolutionary ouevres of directors like Jean-Luc Godard and François Truffaut? But while names such as these easily come to mind when thinking of great French moviemaking, there's more to French cinema than New Wave. There's also the visual humor of Jacques Tati, the slapstick comedy of Louis de Funes, and the artful mastery of Jean Renoir, who is credited by film historians for having created the best French film of all times. If you love French movies, you will be très heureux with the films on this list, which range from wicked noir thrillers to biting World War II satires to whimsical pop opera musicals.
