Interview on the beach of Jacques BREL in Cannes. He is questioned about his film "Far west". He confides that it is a childhood dream for him, he says he dreams at 45 as if he were 15.
Jeanne MOREAU speaks of her dream of being a dancer and then of her shock when seeing Phèdre at the Comédie -Française and "Antigone" by Jean Anouilh. She remembers Denis d'Ines, dean of the Comédie-Française who gave her acting lessons.
Philippe LABRO receives some of the Nouvelle vague filmmakers, former critics of the Cahiers and asks each of them three identical questions: What was the film that marked them when they were critics, what was one of their favourite films and what film they would dream of making? Jean Luc GODARD, who still considers himself a critic, was struck by Louis Lumière’s film "The arrival of the train at the Ciotat station". There is not one of his favorite films because the films he prefers are the ones he doesn’t shoot, "which are better than the ones you can dream of that you can’t shoot because they’re too difficult. The ones we shoot are like leftovers from a meal," and there’s not a movie he dreams of making "because I don’t dream".
