Delicatessen

A surprisingly funny, piece of filmmaking by one of my favorite directors, Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Amelie, City of Lost Children) and Marc Caro. Delicatessen was his first film and, even though its visually impressive, ends up being a mish-mash of strange scenes and stranger characters. Its about their lives, quirks and weird behaviors. Oh, did I mention it takes place in a post-apocalyptic world and they all live in a ruined apartment building? Yeah, that too. The landlord likes to cook people and serve them to his tenants as well. Thats nice of him and very thoughtful.
