In 1959, producer Georges de Beauregard considered himself ruined following the commercial failures of the films Ramuntcho and Pêcheur d’Islande. […] However, Beauregard still had a lifeline: the film grant program, recently created by Minister André Malraux. This consisted of a loan of around thirty million francs at the time, aimed at encouraging the making of new films. While the amount was insufficient to produce a standard film, it was invaluable for easing a production budget. Beauregard’s great idea was to look for a director capable of making a film with a budget that would not exceed the proposed thirty million. Serious candidates were not exactly lining up. At the time, it was unthinkable to make a film costing less than one hundred million. But Jean-Luc Godard, who happened to be around, declared himself completely ready to make a film under these conditions. Naturally, Beauregard tried to impose a subject adapted from Pierre Loti on him, but Godard had the courage to resist. He didn’t have the slightest idea of what he was going to do, but that was a minor detail. He consulted his friends Truffaut and Chabrol, and they settled on a recent news item recounting the misadventures of a young gangster hunted by the police. A one-page synopsis was drawn up and pitched to Beauregard, who accepted it for lack of anything better. He did not know that he had just made the most important decision of his entire life. It was, in fact, the birth certificate of Breathless." Raymond C. in Raymond Cauchetier, La Nouvelle Vague, Hugo Image, Paris, 2022 p. 14.
