Film Description

The incredibly versatile Juliette Binoche stars as a woman living on the streets in one of the most expensive French love stories ever made. La Binoche's first moment of glory for British audiences, Leos Carax's love story of a pair of down-and-outs in Paris has a splendour both savage and brilliant in the best senses of those words. A poem to love and to cinema. If you're idealistic only once, be idealistic now!

Review by Andy Mckay on 14th April 2004

A spectacular and ambitious movie and, at the time, responsible for one of the largest and most expensive film sets ever, Les Amants Du Pont-Neuf is a romance with several twists. Shot through with originality, is a visual and visceral treat that essentially celebrates humanity in the face of adversity.

Although not the most prolific of Directors, Carax is certainly one of the most profound, his work as challenging as it is enjoyable. Les Amants has a claim for the title of first great French film of the 90s and for being the movie that launched Binoche on to the International stage.
Wonderful and compelling, it goes out with a bang!
