BOY MEETS GIRL - LEOS CARAX

Directed by Leos Carax
France, 1984, 1h 40min, DCP, In French with English subtitles
Part of the Leos Carax: The Alex Trilogy

“A wonderful movie about a disastrous personality, directed with such an exacting eye that even its excesses take on a kind of charm.”
—New York Native

“The meteoric first film by the French director Leos Carax … Ecstatic cinema and ecstatic living join together in a pressurized promise of glory and misery, a flameout waiting to happen.”
—The New Yorker

Alex (Denis Lavant) is a filmmaker who has yet to make a film. Mireille (Mireille Perrier) is a jilted lover on the verge of suicide. Two strangers cross paths in the night, their lives connected by a voice over an intercom. The first outing for Carax’s alter ego — this is the stuff of cinephile dreams.
