I AM CURRENTLY WORKING ON EXPANDING AND REVISING SOME OF THE BEST PIECES FROM MOON IN THE GUTTER AT MY OFFICIAL SITE, NOSTALGIA KINKY. THIS NEW PROJECT CAN BE ACCESSED BY CLICKING THE PICTURE BELOW.
I got to a see a print of this a few months back. I knew nothing about the film except that I would be getting free student admission. It was very enjoyable.
I love it when you can go into a film cold and be completely knocked for a loop by it. It's what happened to me with this where a friend burnt me a copy and I popped it in not knowing much more than the basic plot. I was, and am, in love with this movie. I want to live in it.
I haven't seen this movie since the early 90s. I didn't know until you and I started talking on Facebook that this by the same director as Betty Blue, another film I haven't seen since the 90s. It's amazing how much time and how many films have come through my life since then. I think I still have the old clamshell vhs for this movie! I should see if I can dig it up.
Off topic, but one of my all time favorite foreign films... well, my all time favorite is a movie called Twist and Shout. Have you seen it? I haven't watched it in so long. I kind of miss foreign movies. I fell off the wagon when I discovered B horror. I never looked back, but sometimes I wish I had.
Thanks Amanda! I haven't seen Twist and Shout but I will try and track a copy down...also, it's so nice to hear good words for both Diva and Betty Blue (a film I will be featuring as well in the future).

Great shots from an absolute class act. I'll click on that link tomorrow when I have more time.

Thanks guys,
I absolutely adore this film and was sorry this post didn't get more reactions, so I really appreciate both of yours. Thanks!

Thanks Jessica for the great story...I know what you mean. Why can't the world be this colorful and wonderfully alive?
