Jean-Luc Godard
American movie producer Jeremy Prokosch (Jack Palance) hires respected German director Fritz Lang (playing himself) to direct a film adaptation of Homer's Odyssey. Dissatisfied with Lang's treatment of the material as an art film, Prokosch hires Paul Javal (Michel Piccoli), a novelist and playwright, to rework the script. The conflict between artistic expression and commercial opportunity parallels Paul's sudden estrangement from his wife Camille (Brigitte Bardot), who is mysteriously aloof to him after being left alone with his boss, the millionaire playboy Prokosch.
In a notable sequence, the characters played by Piccoli and Bardot wander through their apartment alternately arguing and reconciling, Bardot playing the petulant young wife in a way that became definitive of the style. The sequence was memorably filmed in an extended series of tracking shots, in natural light and in near real-time. (Wikipedia)
