In Tribute to Jean-Jacques Beineix

Jules, a young Parisian postman, secretly records a concert performance given by the opera singer Cynthia Hawkins, whom he idolizes. The following day, Jules runs into a woman who is being pursued by armed thugs. Before she is killed, the woman slips an audio cassette into his mail bag… leading to a mix-up, confusion, and a life-or-death struggle for Jules – plus a legendary and still breathtaking chase through the Paris Metro. Don’t miss the chance to see this absolute cult classic that launched the all-too-brief “Cinéma du look” movement in a rare, 35mm screening.

Please Note: All in-person screenings at the Brattle now require proof of vaccination or a negative Covid-19 test (within 72-hours). See the Covid Response page for complete details.
