This film is a 'must see', spellbinding from start to finish. So
powerful that a special screening was arranged for the French Cabinet
to help them understand the 'street' situation for young Parisians
from the Banlieu (Parisian equivalent of NYCs projects). Great music
too as Robin said. The Director is Matthieu Kassovitz (sp?), who was
also in Amelie, though I'm having trouble imagining two more
dissimilar films.
It's been a couple of years since I saw it, but didn't notice 'I
Can't Turn Around' on the soundtrack.
I have to admit that I am UTTERLY obsessed with this track at the
moment - I go into some kind of weird body spasm trance every time I
hear it. I also keep making all my friends listen to it, but they
just look at me like I'm weird....
Anyone else get that with tracks sometimes where no one else seems to
understand?
(The new Madvillain track is my other one like that at the moment)
