Jean-Luc Godard (born 3 December 1930) is a French and Swiss filmmaker and one of the founding members of the Nouvelle Vague, or French New Wave. Godard was born to Franco-Swiss parents in Paris. He attended school in Nyon, Switzerland, and at the Lyce Rohmer, and the University of Paris. During his time at the Sorbonne, he became involved with the young group of filmmakers and film theorists that gave birth to the New Wave. Many of Godard's films challenge the conventions of traditional Hollywood cinema as well as the French equivalent, namely the tradition of quality. He is often considered the most extreme or radical of the New Wave filmmakers. His films express his political ideologies as well as his knowledge of film history. In addition, Godard's films often cite existential and Marxist philosophy.
