Band of Outsiders (1964)

Crime Drama Comedy Directed by Jean-Luc Godard
→ Influenced 2 films

Cinephile slackers Franz and Arthur spend their days mimicking the antiheroes of Hollywood noirs and Westerns while pursuing the lovely Odile. The misfit trio upends convention at every turn, be it through choreographed dances in cafés or frolicsome romps through the Louvre. Eventually, their romantic view of outlaws pushes them to plan their own heist, but their inexperience may send them out in a blaze of glory -- which could be just what they want.

  1. Reservoir Dogs (1992)
    "Reservoir Dogs was the first film released under Tarantino's A Band Apart production company — itself named after Bande à part — and the film's talky, ensemble, low-budget heist sensibility is in conversation with Godard's New Wave deconstruction of genre." source
  2. Pulp Fiction (1994)
    "Godard's Bande à part dance sequence is the direct model for Mia and Vincent's Jack Rabbit Slim's twist contest. Tarantino's production company A Band Apart is named for it." source
