Synopsis:
Director Jean-Jacques Beineix ( Betty Blue ) launched the Cinéma du look movement with this stylish cult thriller that remains as innovative today as when it premiered in 1981. Jules (Frédéric Andréi), a young postal carrier, illegally tapes a concert of a reclusive opera singer (American soprano Wilhelmenia Wiggins Fernandez). Jules' attempts to woo the diva are interrupted when Taiwanese bootleggers come after the recording. His problems worsen when a prostitute slips another tape, one that incriminates a police chief, into his bag. Now, Jules must escape the police chief, the cop's henchmen and the bootleggers to keep both precious tapes safe—and to stay alive. Featuring a celebrated chase through the Paris Metro and an early appearance by Jean-Pierre Jeunet ( Amélie ) favorite Dominique Pinon, Diva earned César Awards for Beineix, Vladimir Cosma's ( Le Bal ) sumptuous music and Philippe Rousselot's ( Henry & June ) eye-popping cinematography.
