Sam N Mauvais Sang made me feel cooler just for watching it—like I’d chain-smoked a Gauloises in a neon-lit alley while reciting poetry to nobody in particular. It’s moody, stylish, and occasionally baffling, but there’s real heart pulsing beneath all that noir-drenched angst. I loved Juliette Binoche smouldering on screen, and Julie Delpy has that effortlessly aloof charm that just works. And Dennis Lavant—my god, the man dances. That scene? Electric. I honestly think it should be a law: Lavant must dance in every film. Not just the ones he’s in—every film. The plot wobbles here and there, but the vibes? Impeccable.

The dialogue is very good and the characters are certainly intriguing - there's quite a strong sense of mystery present throughout. Its quite stylish for the time it was made with some interesting visuals - card tricks (i.e. magic tricks) are shown at different times. Its thought provoking and somehow relatively poignant too. It's quite an arty film and its not primarily full of sex scenes, even though the main plotline may make you fear it would be.I thought this film was well made and I can understand why its regarded a cult classic, so yes, I'd recommend it. It's worth a watch to see a young Juliette Bonche, if not for any other reason.

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review nefasto r After "Holy Motors" I thought I was not going to give a second chance to Leos Carax, but, as a friend recommended this one, here I am. Gladly (mostly). The direction is stylish and unique, and the love triangle, and love in general, propels the story from the beginning to the end. Not the easiest of films, clearly, but with great dialogs. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Mauvais Sang or Bad Blood, the English title, stars Dennis Levant as Alex, a small time criminal about to break into the criminal big time. After the death of his father, Alex is sought by his father's former associates, Marc (Michel Piccoli) and Hans (Hans Meyer) to be part of a heist that will require his quick hands. The heist involves stealing the cultures of a dangerous virus that is ravaging France, a plague that affects those who make love without being in love. https://geeks.media/classic-movie-review-mauvais-sang?_ga=2.87862744.1126457623.1513947710-953607229.1513947710 Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
