Leos Carax faced two nearly insurmountable challenges here: shooting on the Pont Neuf bridge, one of Paris’ major thoroughfares, and making Juliette Binoche look haggard. He rose to the occasion for his breakout, combining documentary grit with classic melodramatic amour as Binoche and the great Denis Lavant play two star-crossed unhoused souls. -Lee Gardner
