The Hollywood star system has no place in the Nouvelle Vague.
It was a movement defined by "Auteur Theory" and a fierce independent spirit.

François Truffaut, for instance, self-funded his masterpieces like "Les Quatre Cents Coups" and "Jules et Jim" to escape studio constraints.

Jean-Paul Belmondo, the very starting point of the movement, along with Jeanne Moreau, emerged from this context.

Even Alain Delon’s career was defined by auteurs like René Clément in "Plein Soleil."

They weren't "stars" manufactured by a system;
they were muses who embodied the auteur's personal vision.
