Director: Luc Besson
Run Time: 91 min

Concept:
When André, a down-on-his-luck gambler, dives into the icy Seine to end it all, he winds up instead rescuing Angela, a gorgeous, mysterious blonde. Filled with renewed passion for life, they set out to settle André's scores as they wander the City of Lights. Along the way, André finds himself, but he still has some questions about his leggy, lovely companion -can she really be as heavenly as she seems? Filled with wit, warmth and eye-popping visuals, Angel-A shows just how high you can soar when passion takes flight.
Pros:
- One of the few movies that you can see Paris in all its glory
- After awhile you won't notice that it is in black in white
- This movie is exactly what you think is, yet it is done so well, you won't mind the unoriginal idea
Check Out the Trailer
My Thoughts:
This film is one of the few romance films that doesn't make me wanna gag. Usually in the states, romance films show a guy that is a asshole in the beginning of the film and yet somehow changes into an awesome guy by the end of the film, without really showing the progressiveness of how he changes. Plus, when the guy does change he does it effortless, without making any mistakes.
Angel-A kicks all those other films asses by using the guy changes from asshole to gentleman plot correctly. It shows how the guy struggles with change and in accepting blame for his situation. The woman does come into his life and fixes a lot of his problems but she also shows him the causes of his problems.
What did you think of the trailer?
What do you think of romance films in general?
I seen htis crazy film I love the style of it and look. It is kind of weird, but the tall long legged blond is "For Real," she is very interesting. The Guy he is so interesting to but it takes time for him to get wahts going on. He talks alot and says nothing I feel. Anyway I love Films from other countries becuase they give us other takes on there culture and sociatiy in there style.
