A sexually transmitted disease called STBO is sweeping the country; it's spread by having sex without emotional involvement, and most of its victims are teenagers who make love out of curiosity rather than commitment. While a serum that can treat the disease has been formulated, it's been locked away in an inaccessible government building. A woman hires a man to steal the serum.

Richard Brody The New Yorker A masterpiece of ecstatic cinema from 1986, directed by Leos Carax at the age of twenty-five. Jun 19, 2017 Full Review Scott Tobias The Dissolve Alex and Anna's interactions are the enchanted heart - volleying between sequences of the two at play and ones that emphasize their loneliness and disconnection.

Sam N Mauvais Sang made me feel cooler just for watching it鈥攍ike I鈥檇 chain-smoked a Gauloises in a neon-lit alley while reciting poetry to nobody in particular. It鈥檚 moody, stylish, and occasionally baffling, but there鈥檚 real heart pulsing beneath all that noir-drenched angst. I loved Juliette Binoche smouldering on screen, and Julie Delpy has that effortlessly aloof charm that just works. And Dennis Lavant鈥攎y god, the man dances. That scene? Electric. I honestly think it should be a law: Lavant must dance in every film. Not just the ones he鈥檚 in鈥攅very film. The plot wobbles here and there, but the vibes? Impeccable. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/26/25 Full Review isla s This is quite an intense film, in a way. The dialogue is very good and the characters are certainly intriguing - there's quite a strong sense of mystery present throughout. Its quite stylish for the time it was made with some interesting visuals - card tricks (i.e. magic tricks) are shown at different times. Its thought provoking and somehow relatively poignant too. It's quite an arty film and its not primarily full of sex scenes, even though the main plotline may make you fear it would be.I thought this film was well made and I can understand why its regarded a cult classic, so yes, I'd recommend it. It's worth a watch to see a young Juliette Bonche, if not for any other reason. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review
