Chatter about runaway budgets and directorial overreach surrounds Hollywood tent-pole pictures more often than European art films, but Leos Carax’s very European and very artistic third feature, The Lovers on the Bridge —or Les Amants du Pont-Neuf, its more euphonious French title—is exceptional in this way, as in many others.
Nov 3, 1999 · Carax's film begins on the ancient Pont-Neuf, the oldest bridge in Paris, where two vagrants discover each other. One is Michele ( Juliette Binoche ), an artist who is going blind. The other is Alex ( Denis Lavant ), a drunk and druggie who supports himself by fire-breathing.
