From the rom-con spy games in “Hitman” to the French New Wave tricks in “Nouvelle Vague,” he is not done mixing and matching.

Nouvelle Vague, his film about the making of Jean-Luc Godard’s Breathless, is shot in the style of the French New Wave. Blue Moon, which tells the story of lyricist Lorenz Hart, is a chamber piece that unfolds with the intimacy of live theater.
