Collection of films directed by acclaimed French film-maker Leos
Carax. The thriller 'The Night is Young' (1986), follows petty
thief and street hustler Alex (Denis Lavant) plotting to steal a
new miracle cure for an AIDS-like virus on behalf of his gangster
friend Marc (Michel Piccoli), attracting the notice of a mysterious
American woman who also wants the serum. In 'Holy Motors' (2012),
Lavant stars as the man of many identities Monsieur Oscar. Driven
around Paris by his chauffeur Celine (Edith Scob), Oscar makes use
of an elaborate dressing room in his limousine to assume the
identity of a number of different characters. At various points
throughout the journey he appears as a businessman, a beggar, an
assassin, a father and an old woman and in each disguise steps out
of his limousine to engage with the world while embarking on
bizarre adventures that include kidnapping a beautiful model, Kay
(Eva Mendes). But what exactly lies at the root of Oscar's
extraordinary behaviour? 'Boy Meets Girl' (1984) is the darkly
comic love story which involves two strangers (Lavant and Mireille
Perrier) who are destined to meet after their relationships break
down. The collection also contains the documentary exploration of
writer and director Carax, entitled 'Mr X' (2014).
