I remember the trailer was discussed on here half a year ago but never heard anything about the actual movie afterwards. Now it's shown in my town and I wonder if I should go. Saw the german trailer yesterday and it was awful but that's how trailers are. Has anybody seen the movie? Yay or nay?

    it has yet to appear on US screens as well.
    I'd much rather see it on a big screen,but will settle for online if need be.
    French dudes..has this been released in your neck of the woods?

    There was a screening last night in NY, but I wasn't able to go.

  • Went to see this a couple of months ago I enjoyed it although without giving too much away the director occasional uses puppets a la The Labyrinth at certain points which is unnecessary. I would have liked a bit more music especially circa Bonnie and Clyde but it was really well casted and worth seeing. Could have been better with a few tweaks.

  • Saw the movie here in the UK a few months ago.
    It surpassed my expectation which were quite high to start with, puppets get used quite a lot which I thought was a really good idea though my wife wasn't as keen.
    Cant recommend it enough to those who enjoy gainsbourgs work.

    it was on for one night only here, and as per usual on a night when I had a work function, any one got a rip?

    Um, puppets? GTFOH. Explain context without spoiling perhaps? Sounds dumb.

    I haven't seen it, but it's making me wonder if it's used like in the Karen Carpenter flick that Todd Solondz did:
