FUN CITY EDITIONS PRESENTS THREE ACTION-FILLED TALES OF ORDINARY CITlZENS ENACTING BLOODY REVENGE AGAINST VIOLENT CRlMlNALS!
A Paris fIea market vendor (Gérard Lanvin) is transformed into a vigilante 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 killers, a veteran police inspector leads a paraIIeI investigation. This Iean, inteIIigently-crafted thriIler packs an emotional punch, largely 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, incIuding Truffaut's Shoot the Piano PIayer, DeImer Daves' Dark Passage and Jacques Tourneur's NightfaIl. For Street of the Damned (Rue Barbare, 1984), GiIles Béhat transposes Goodis' Street of the Lost from 1950s PhiladeIphia to a desoIate, almost post-apocalyptic Paris suburb. There, no one dares chalIenge crime boss Hagen, who rules his turf with an iron fist. That incIudes his former friend Chet (Bernard Giraudeau), who vows to keep to himself in order to protect his loved ones. But Hagen keeps pushing his buttons...and Chet can only stand for so much before he explodes. Resembling a dark, offbeat comic book, Street of the Damned evokes films 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 BIack List (Liste Noire, 1984). Disaster ensues and two of the youngsters are kiIled, incIuding 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 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.
