The Lovers on the Bridge

DramaRomance

Directed by Leos Carax

Set against Paris' oldest bridge, the Pont Neuf, while it was closed for repairs, this film is a love story between two young vagrants: Alex, a would be circus performer addicted to alcohol and sedatives and Michele, a painter driven to a life on the streets because of a failed relationship and an affliction which is slowly turning her blind.

    The New Leos (“The Lovers on the Bridge”, “Holy Motors”) Carax film premieres on The Criterion Channel tonight. Seems very Godard influenced. Someones gotta make Godard films now Godard is dead, I guess. youtu.be/UYWGU9tlE0s?...

    The Lovers on the Bridge feels like that it doesn't get that much appreciation and recognition, given that I absolutely loved that movie so much with the ideas of love does have a lot of it's own flaws that can really affect our relationships and bonding between each other through obsession.

    I haven't seen it yet but yeah, this is like his Godard homage film where he reflects on his own ouvre, it's not the best place to start. He's one of my fav director and you should definitely watch more of him. I would go chronologically or maybe start with The Lovers on the Bridge

    As romances go, they don’t come a lot less orthodox than this one. “Alex” (Denis Lavant) is a vagrant who finds a berth of a night on the Pont Neuf over the Seine that has been closed for renovation. He survives on a diet of drugs and alcohol and has no real friends beyond his dealer on the bridge. One night he discovers a woman sleeping in his spot. Neither man knows quite how she got there, but “Hans” (Klaus-Michael Grüber) vows to send her packing next morning. When that time comes, however,…
