My Nights Are More Beautiful Than Your Days
A whimsical , hurly-burly quasi-autobiographical love romp from the master of operatic love! Pop celebrity Jacques Dutronc is just a genius computer programmer diagnosed with a terminal brain disease, and Sophie Marceau could be a surreal mentalist nightclub act's major attraction. Embarking on a billowy, tempestuous May-September fling (mirroring Zulawski and Marceau's very own union ), they move through their respective youth traumas, while racing to retain Lucas' grip of speech. Even a pastel-and-neon poetic feast not just on the visual point, but literally, My Nights... astounds with its own lush word play -- for the sole manner that Lucas is able to progressively combat his own vanishing mind would be to consult with increasingly rhyming and metaphorical yells, before whole planet becomes one enormous sweet-toothed, Zulawskian word association game.
