ABOUT THE FILM

A childlike homeless man (Denis Lavant, in a heart-stopping performance) and a soon-to-be-blind painter (Juliette Binoche) fall in love on the Pont-Neuf bridge. Against the dazzling Technicolor backdrop of Paris by night and the city’s 1989 bicentennial celebration, the film is a mad whirl of impossibly romantic gestures played out against the Chaplin-esque pathos of the streets.

FORMAT: 35mm
