Title: ANOTHER COP KILLER HERO.
Review: Our hero in "Breathless" is played by Richard Gere. His name is Jesse and he has his faults like all of us do. You know...stealing cars, assaulting people, killing police officers. This movie would lead us to believe that he is really a pretty good guy at heart. Jesse simply likes living a little closer to the edge than most. We follow him on the adventures he encounters while he is busy stalking an attractive young woman named Monica. He had romanced her for a few days while she was vacationing in Las Vegas and has decided that he is in love and has to have her. Is there any reason to care about Jesse and whether or not he finds the happiness and love he is looking for? The short answer would be...NO. "Breathless" is yet another in a very long list of movies with criminal protagonists who are selfish, violent and difficult to care about.
