FUN CITY EDITlONS PRESENTS THREE ACTION-FILLED TALES OF ORDlNARY CITIZENS 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 killers, a veteran police inspector leads a paraIlel 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' novels 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-apocaIyptic 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 loved ones. But Hagen keeps pushing his buttons...and Chet can onIy 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 AIain Bonnot's BIack List (Liste Noire, 1984). Disaster ensues and two of the youngsters are kiIled, including 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 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.
