History of the New Wave/The French New Wave:

The French new wave is the style of film making that broke Hollywoods rules and inspired a new way of film making that has carried through to the present day. As an artistic movement that changed the way Hollywood saw film making - choosing to use natural environments rather than studio sets - it gave the directors a great deal more freedom when it came to shooting their films and has been remembered as a great influence much like cubism and surrealism. This style of film making meant that the craft was opened up to many young, aspiring film makers and other amateurs - the French new wave was a cultural revolution. 

The new wave movement showed and reflected the change in lifestyle that was happening during the 1960s and how society was evolving. It took normal peoples lives and put them into cinema, being centred around young people, youth and a something new/a new life.
