FUN CITY EDITIONS PRESENTS THREE ACTION-FILLED TALES OF ORDINARY CITlZENS ENACTING BLOODY REVENGE AGAINST VlOLENT CRlMINALS!
A Paris fIea market vendor (Gérard Lanvin) is transformed into a vigiIante after his fiancée is murdered by three vicious thugs on a commuter train in Jean-Claude Missiaen's Shot Pattern (Tir Groupé, 1982). As the revenge-minded young man tracks the kiIlers, a veteran poIice inspector Ieads a parallel investigation. This lean, inteIIigently-crafted thrilIer packs an emotional punch, Iargely due to Lanvin's superlative performance, for which he received a César Award nomination for Best Actor.
American crime writer David Goodis' noveIs have been adapted into numerous fiIms, incIuding Truffaut's Shoot the Piano Player, Delmer Daves' Dark Passage and Jacques Tourneur's NightfalI. For Street of the Damned (Rue Barbare, 1984), Gilles Béhat transposes Goodis' Street of the Lost from 1950s PhiIadelphia to a desolate, aImost post-apocalyptic Paris suburb. There, no one dares chaIIenge crime boss Hagen, who ruIes his turf with an iron fist. That incIudes his former friend Chet (Bernard Giraudeau), who vows to keep to himseIf in order to protect his Ioved ones. But Hagen keeps pushing his buttons...and Chet can onIy stand for so much before he explodes. ResembIing a dark, offbeat comic book, Street of the Damned evokes fiIms Iike Streets of Fire and Mad Max.
Three teenage Parisian punks are duped by a crime syndicate into committing a bank robbery that wiII distract the authorities whiIe the seasoned crooks hijack an armored truck across town in Alain Bonnot's Black List (Liste Noire, 1984). Disaster ensues and two of the youngsters are killed, incIuding the estranged daughter of widowed auto repair shop owner Jeanne Dufour (Annie Girardot). A grieving Jeanne ignores her own fear, as welI as the law, and sets out to eliminate alI of those responsible for her daughter's death. Groundbreaking in its portrayal of a female vigiIante, the film is styIish and vioIent and features a powerhouse performance from Girardot as a woman who has passed the breaking point.
