Zazie dans le Métro
A brash and precocious ten-year-old comes to Paris to get a weekend with her uncle. He and the audience have a lot more than they bargained for within this comedy. Based on a popular novel by Raymond Queneau which was considered unadaptable, Malle's audacious Zazie dans le Métro, made using flair on the cusp of the French New Wave, is actually a bit of stream-of-consciousness slap-stick, wall-to-wall with visual gags, editing tricks, and impacts.
