Luc Besson's derivative story is too heavy-handed, and his "Paris" is a bland mishmash of the same tourist attractions that adorn most Parisian postcards.
Looking to escape his past, Andre accepts the help of a mysterious woman and sets in motion a chain of events that will change his life forever. Beautiful in its simplicity, this supernatural love story was shot in black and white in picturesque Paris.
Overview:
ANGEL-A, directed by Luc Besson, is a visually beautiful tale that begins when two strangers meet on a bridge in Paris one morning. Looking to escape his past Andre (Jamel Debbouze) accepts the help of the mysterious Angela (Rie Rasmussen) and sets in motion a chain of events that will change his life forever. Beautiful in its simplicity, Angel-A is a striking, supernatural love-story.
Shot in black and white in an unforgettably picturesque Paris, the film stars supermodel Rie Rasmussen, who starred in Brian de Palma's Femme Fatale and Jamel Debbouze, last seen in the smash hit Amelie. Renowned director of photography Thierry Arbogast joins Luc Besson in their fifth collaboration, fifteen years since they first worked together on Nikita.
