A tense comedy / tragedy about a guy who shaves his trademark mustache and no one remembers it was ever even there. Are folks fucking with him or is he losing his mind? A brilliant performance from Vincent Lindon. Genius.

A niche French film directed by Patrice Leconte.
Antoine, the main character obsessed with hairdressers since childhood, marries Mathilde, living a passionate yet melancholic romance.
The movie is known for its poetic and sensual cinematography.

i saw this on a whim at BAM in september & was delighted by it’s combination of noir/french new wave/comedy . it’s truffaut so i don’t know how niche it is but i was taken aback but just how funny & sincere & sad it all was combined with the slightly surrealistic qualities of the script & line deliveries . a zippy 81 minutes of tragicomic misadventure & set in winter so perfect for the season !

💿Mysterious band and one of my favs ever. “God Has Lips: Collected Recordings Vol.1” is the new album, their first release since 2010. This is that real shit I would like to listen to in a locker room before a game drinking blue gatorade dipping Skoal mint longcut kicking over garbage cans.

♾️Okay, I like ambient music – sue me. One of my favorite composers is a French electronic artist whose music I might describe as ethereal. It’s like soft-reverb-soaked, loop-based, nighttime-inspired melodic music. She’s prolific in the studio but rarely plays shows and doesn’t do a lot of press. Her side projects (Dj Lostboi and Belmont Girl) are just as interesting. If I were going to make a movie about eternity, I would have her score it.https://soundcloud.com/mmmmalibuhttps://soundcloud.com/belmontghttps://soundcloud.com/djlostboi

📙I’ve been re-reading The Ancient Hours, a slim novel that locks itself into a trance of amusement for the dust that settles on townspeople following a devastating tragedy. The pace goes fast, the perspective steadily repositions itself, it’s fucked and funny and reminds me to keep my head on a swivel. Bible is a freaking king writer.
