Full Plot Details

It's night on a Paris bridge. A girl leans over Seine River with tears in her eyes and a violent yearning to drown her sorrows. Out of nowhere someone takes an interest in her. He is Gabor, a knife thrower who needs a human target for his show. The girl, Adele, has never been lucky and nowhere else to go. So she follows him. They travel along the northern bank of the Mediterranean to perform and in the process win a big fortune through gambling. Although both of them continue a platonic relationship, the sex-starved girl attempts to sleep with handsome guys she encounters throughout the journey. Finally, Adele falls in love with a newly-wed groom and both of them elope to Greece, while Gabor is stuck in Turkey. Then Adele is dumped by the groom. Only by now both Gabor and Adele realize that luck isn't with them unless they get together again. But both of them are so broke that they can't even feed themselves, let alone getting back to Paris and reunite...

Movie Reviews

Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertWhat's best about the movie is its playfulness.
Film Freak Central - 9/10 by Walter ChawA lovely, hopelessly romantic little bauble that catches the light no matter how you turn it.
Combustible Celluloid - 8/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonIt's a mish-mash of bits of old movies, but they've been wrapped up nicely.
One Guy's Opinion - 8/10 by Frank SwietekIt shows a lightness of style and a command of craft that make it a delectable treat, if not a terribly fulfilling one.
Goatdog's Movies - 8/10 by Michael W. Phillips, Jr.The entire film hinges on the performances.
Apollo Guide - 6/10 by Brian WebsterA smart, funny and touching film that's packed with symbolism while not seeming the slightest bit heavy or overly intellectual.
Film Journal International - 6/10 by Peter HenneA flamboyant, theatrical, speculative and goofy film about a reckless, chaste, tragic love affair, one that's only-but also gloriously-fit for the movies.
User Review - 10/10 by Justin LA beautifully filmed ode to the French New Wave. This film is an absolute joy to watch from beginning to end. The black and white cinematography is a stand out as is the acting from both leads. It's really hard to describe what this film is but it's something that could have vastly different meanings for different people. For me, it's everything film can be. Smart, suspenseful, beautiful, erotic, unique and anything else you'd look for in a person, let alone a film. This is the embodiment of the human spirit. Seriously.
User Review - 10/10 by Felix MThis is one of the very best opening scenes I've ever seen. "La poisse, la poisse... elle s'explique pas... Voyez les papier collant pour pieger les mouches? ben, c'est moi crache"
User Review - 10/10 by Nicola JA great movie from France speaks volumes on people down to their last hope. A suicidal girl becomes the target for the knife thrower who saves her from jumping off a bridge. One of those movies where you want to hug someone..in this case Vanessa Paradis. I loved this movie.
