Deutsch Der ehemalige Fremdenlegionär Julien ermordet den Mann seiner Geliebten Florence in dessen Büro und lässt die Tat wie Selbstmord aussehen. Als ihm einfällt, dass er etwas vergessen hat, will er noch einmal zurück, bleibt aber im Fahrstuhl des Gebäudes stecken, weil der Strom für die Nacht abgestellt wird. Während er versucht, sich zu befreien, läuft die verzweifelte Florence auf der Suche nach ihrem Geliebten durch die Straßen von Paris.
Italiano Julien uccide, d'accordo con l'amante, il marito di lei. Ma quando sta uscendo dalla casa del delitto resta chiuso nell'ascensore. In una memorabile scena tenta di liberarsi dalla trappola.

Arrestato per questo delitto che non ha commesso, Julien non sa come difendersi perché dovrebbe rivelare l'altro delitto. Ma la sua amante riesce a scagionarlo.

Nederlands Florence, is de sensuele maîtresse van de gedesillusioneerde oorlogsveteraan Julien. Hij werkt in het bedrijf van Florence's echtgenoot, een wapenhandelaar. Het leven van de hoofdpersonen raakt in een stroomversnelling wanneer Julien, opgejut door Florence, zijn baas met een revolverschot doodt.
Português Florence ama Julien Tavernier e não ao seu marido, Simon Carala, homem rico e totalmente dedicado a seus negócios. Os amantes planejam o crime perfeito: Julien cria um álibi incontestável, assassina Simon Carala e faz seu ato criminoso parecer um suicídio. Mas, o destino intervém e Julien fica preso dentro do elevador - e o porteiro desliga a chave da corrente elétrica. Enquanto tenta escapar do interior do elevador, um casal de namorados rouba seu carro e mata dois turistas alemães. A partir daí, Julien é procurado pelo homicídio que não cometeu. Será ele condenado?
Magyar "Felvonó a sikerhez" - írta a korabeli francia sajtó erről a Delluc-díjjal jutalmazott elsőfilmről, melynek "új hullámos" rendezője ismerte fel Jeanne Moreau valódi egyéniségét. Modern hangvételű, brilliánsan felépített krimibe - egy "tökéletes bűntény" meghiúsulásának fordulatos történetébe - ágyazva mutat be egy nyomasztóan kiszámíthatatlan világot, ahol a szerelem az egyetlen kapaszkodó. Ezért öleti meg férjét a szeretőjével a gazdag polgárasszony, akinek szenvedélyét úgy jeleníti meg Moreau, hogy a film során egyszer sem találkozik szerelmével.

Niestety po opuszczeniu budynku orientuje się, iż pozostawił po sobie ślad. Próbuje wrócić na miejsce zbrodni, jednak wskutek wyłączenia prądu zostaje uwięziony w windzie.
български език Онова, което слага тежък отпечатък върху филма и му придава учудващ отзвук е описанието на двойката млади убийци. Признавам, че тяхната история ме накара да изтръпна и да се замисля върху психологията на това младо "загубено" поколение, заслепено от парите и успеха, на който нашето общество не предлага други закони, освен тези на джунглата и друго право, освен това на по-силния.

In Louis Malle’s captivating and philosophical My Dinner with André, actor and playwright Wallace Shawn sits down with friend and theater director André Gregory at an Upper West Side restaurant, and the two proceed into an alternately whimsical and despairing confessional on love, death, money, and all the superstition in between. Playing variations on their own New York–honed personas, Shawn and Gregory, who also wrote the screenplay, dive in with introspective, intellectual gusto, and Malle captures it all with a delicate, artful detachment. A fascinating freeze-frame of cosmopolitan culture, My Dinner with André remains a unique work in cinema history.
Since the early days, Jerry Lewis – in the line of Chaplin, Keaton and Laurel – had the masses laughing with his visual gags, pantomime sketches and signature slapstick humor. Yet Lewis was far more than just a clown. He was also a groundbreaking filmmaker whose unquenchable curiosity led him to write, produce, stage and direct many of the films he appeared in. However, American critics and the cultural elite tended to reject his abrasive art. While they viewed Lewis as nothing more than just a clown, others like the French recognized him as a true auteur, giving rise to questions that have perplexed American pop culture for over 50 years: Why do Europeans love Jerry Lewis? What is this inexpliquable aversion Americans have towards him? Is he just a brash, anything-for-yuk buffoon? Or is he a creative genius? Who is the man behind the clown?
Internationally acclaimed director Louis Malle has taken a taboo subject - child prostitution - and has created in Pretty Baby a film of humanity and beauty. E.J. Bellocq (Keith Carradine) is a photographer obsessed with the prostitutes in New Orleans' red-light district. Violet (12-year-old Brooke Shields), a young girl in 1917, bewitches Carradine with her curiosity and naive coquettishness. Malle's level-headed treatment of this controversial theme and exceptional performances by the entire cast (especially Susan Sarandon as Violet's prostitute mother) makes Pretty Baby a must-see for all serious film fans.
Academy Award, Emmy Award and Golden Globe-winner Jeremy Irons ("Reversal of Fortune," "Elizabeth") stars as Dr. Stephen Fleming, a respected member of Parliament who falls passionately in love with Anna (Academy Award-winner Juliette Binoche "The English Patient," "Chocolat"), the fiancee of his son, Martyn (Rupert Graves "Maurice," "V for Vendetta").

Completely obsessed, Stephen wants to give up his current lifestyle to be with Anna. But she has no intention of allowing him to do this, preferring to have her marriage to his son as a cover. However, they are eventually discovered and are forced to deal with the emotional Damage.
