Description
[Machine Translation] Jules, a young postman with a passion for music, secretly records an aria from the opera "Wally" sung by Cynthia Hawkins, a beautiful and mysterious black opera singer known as the Diva (Goddess of Song), at a concert. The tape of Cynthia, who would never allow her songs to be recorded, and the tape of Jules' confession revealing the secrets of a prostitution ring that was accidentally slipped onto Jules' mobiletta (moped). Jules is pursued by the police, a pair of punk-fashioned hit men, and a Taiwanese record label that wants to pirate the tapes. Jules' friend Gorodish, an eccentric man who dreams of "stopping the waves," and his partner Alba solve the complicated cases one by one, as if they were putting together a jigsaw puzzle. A beautiful love romance between Jules, a music lover, and Cynthia, a beautiful music diva, and at the same time a suspense thriller about two tapes, this is the first feature film by Jean-Jacques Benex and a masterpiece in its own right. The film's stylistic unity based on the color blue, the loft like a different space where Jules lives with his scrap car as an object, the strange apartment in Gorodish where various pop art pieces are scattered and the girl Alba roller-skates, or the maze-like complexity of the Paris subway where Jules escapes, all seem to correspond with the film's sense of beauty and the film's sense of humor. The film's narrative is a response to the complexities of the city. This film is full of originality, excitement, and fun. ( First shown in Japan in 1981 )
