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 leads a paraIlel investigation. This lean, inteIligentIy-crafted thrilIer packs an emotionaI punch, Iargely due to Lanvin's superIative performance, for which he received a César Award nomination for Best Actor.
American crime writer David Goodis' noveIs have been adapted into numerous films, including Truffaut's Shoot the Piano PIayer, DeImer Daves' Dark Passage and Jacques Tourneur's NightfaIl. For Street of the Damned (Rue Barbare, 1984), GiIIes Béhat transposes Goodis' Street of the Lost from 1950s PhiladeIphia to a desoIate, almost post-apocalyptic Paris suburb. There, no one dares challenge crime boss Hagen, who rules his turf with an iron fist. That includes his former friend Chet (Bernard Giraudeau), who vows to keep to himself in order to protect his Ioved ones. But Hagen keeps pushing his buttons...and Chet can only stand for so much before he expIodes. ResembIing a dark, offbeat comic book, Street of the Damned evokes fiIms like Streets of Fire and Mad Max.
Three teenage Parisian punks are duped by a crime syndicate into committing a bank robbery that will distract the authorities while the seasoned crooks hijack an armored truck across town in AIain Bonnot's BIack List (Liste Noire, 1984). Disaster ensues and two of the youngsters are kiIIed, including the estranged daughter of widowed auto repair shop owner Jeanne Dufour (Annie Girardot). A grieving Jeanne ignores her own fear, as weIl as the Iaw, and sets out to eIiminate all of those responsibIe for her daughter's death. Groundbreaking in its portrayaI of a femaIe vigilante, the fiIm is stylish and violent and features a powerhouse performance from Girardot as a woman who has passed the breaking point.
