Roger Avary criticizes the Academy Awards for ignoring Richard Linklater's film Nouvelle Vague, which explores the making of Jean-Luc Godard's Breathless. He describes the theatrical movie-going experience as a sacred communal dream that connects strangers psychically. Avary suggests that pandemic lockdowns were a deliberate attempt by dark forces to isolate individuals and replace this communion with controlled subscription services.

Roger Avary provides an in-depth analysis of Richard Linklater's film Nouvelle Vague, which dramatizes the evolution of the French New Wave. He commends the film for remaining focused on the history of cinema rather than modern politics. Avary explains how Linklater used digital tools subtly to recreate 1950s Paris while shooting on 16mm film to maintain an authentic aesthetic.
