INFO
This is perhaps the most bizarre, beautiful and creative film ever made.
The cinematography, costuming (by Jean-Paul Gaultier), set design, music,
special effects and performances by all actors are all absolutely superb.
Another fantastic movie by Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Marc Caro, the creators
of Delicatessen, Alien Resurrection, and other brilliant work.
