Over the course of a single day, Monsieur Oscar travels by limousine around Paris to a series of nine "appointments," transforming into new characters or incarnations at each stop. Melding monster movie, film noir, romantic drama, musical, crime thriller, anime, Léos Carax's mirthful, mind-bending masterwork is a ravishing fever dream of becoming, unraveling and starting all over again.

The theme, acting, and cinematography are excellent. While I found the story engaging, the slow pace underscoring the frequent transformations taxed my attention span and patience.

Another, newer, rad Carax film. Loved it. Not my favorite of his works, but a fantastic film to be certain!

What the hell did I just watch (and pay for)? Incoherent masturbatory weirdness.
