La Dame dans I'Auto avec des Lunettes et un Fusil

La Dame dans I'Auto avec des Lunettes et un Fusil is not only a movie with the longest title ever, but also a very visual and engaging remake of a 1969 movie under the same title worth spending your precious free time on.

 

It premiered in France on August, 5 and I came upon it in the list of contestants for the 45^th Molodist film festival in Kiev. 

In a nutshell, there's a long-legged girl in a vintage car heading towards the new adventures, magnificent views of the French South and the perfect soundtrack from the 70s.
If you take a closer look, it becomes obvious that what seems to be a typical road movie is full of suspense. 

Je n'ai jamais vu la mer, Dany says, and steals her bosses car. However, this impulsive, head-in-the-clouds creature will soon discover she has bigger worries than not to scratch the car as she falls victim to some dreadful scheme. 

 

The film is slow-paced, it focuses on small details, and they are very relevant to the story. It's core strength is in strong visuals, rather then action or Shakespearian dialogues.

There was also one face familiar to many: Nymphomaniac's Stacy Martin who didn't have much to say, although the movie gives credit to her model appeal and statuesque body.

Those of you who are aware of the 70s great comeback in fashion may find this film especially inspiring.
