The Godard Fiasco
In 1968, an excited audience awaited the arrival of Jean-Luc Godard, who had been invited to open a series of (…) lectures at the National Film Theatre. Instead, they received this telegram.
100 members of the audience accepted the offer to have their money returned, while the remainder stayed for a screening of Godard’s Vivre sa vie.

Seberg’s first day of work on A bout de souffle (Breathless) with Belmondo and Godard, at a cafe on the Champs-Elysees, August 24, 1959 — Raymond Cauchetier
Jean-Paul Belmondo had already been working on the film for a week, and was now used to Jean-Luc Godard’s unconventional methods. However, Seberg was used to the large-scale productions of Otto Preminger, with whom she worked on Saint Joan (1957) and Bonjour Tristesse (1958), where she was surrounded by an army of technicians, assistants and cameras, with each second of the script kept rigidly.
Seberg now found herself virtually alone with Jean-Luc Godard in a cafe on the Champs-Elysees, with no script or prior direction. Godard kept a small notebook in which he noted some vague ideas, but not a word of the dialogue, which he was to impart during shooting.
