About this movie

Over the course of a single day, Monsieur Oscar travels by limousine around Paris to a series of nine "appointments," transforming into new characters or incarnations at each stop. Melding monster movie, film noir, romantic drama, musical, crime thriller, anime, Léos Carax's mirthful, mind-bending masterwork is a ravishing fever dream of becoming, unraveling and starting all over again.

The theme, acting, and cinematography are excellent. While I found the story engaging, the slow pace underscoring the frequent transformations taxed my attention span and patience.

Another, newer, rad Carax film. Loved it. Not my favorite of his works, but a fantastic film to be certain!

I love this movie. It's weird and beautiful as so much of life is. What is it really about? So much to think about. Wonderful performances. Expertly directed and thought out. An exquisite film.
