Mortal Transfer and Diva

Come see Jean-Jacques Beineix's Mortal Transfer and Diva at American Cinematheque at The Egyptian Theatre.

Mortal Transfer
Michel Durand is a psychoanalyst. His days tick by in the muffled torpor of his office amid the moans of a math teacher complaining about her unruly pupils, the ranting of a premature ejaculator and the sado-masochistic tales of Olga Kubler, a perverted kleptomaniac. A pretty ordinary life for a therapist, if the strange and seductive Mrs. Kubler hadn't had the unfortunate idea of getting strangled on her doctor's couch, just when he'd fallen asleep. As the snow falls over Paris, silent flakes whirl in the doctor's dreams... 7 p.m. The clock chimes. The session is over. Olga does not move. This time, Michel Durand is wide awake.

Diva
Just one lousy misstep, and reedy postman Frédéric Andréi is on the run all across Paris— including a hair-raising car-and-moped chase through the Métro— hotly pursued by a drug dealer/white slaver/cop honcho’s hit team (including blond, sun-glassed Dominique Pinon, wielding the world’s most vicious awl); ruthless Taiwanese music pirates; and the obviously outmanned flics themselves: all because he pirated a recording of the woman of his dreams, the NEVER-recorded opera super-star Wilhelmenia Wiggins Fernandez, as she wraps up a recital with an aria from obscure 19th composer Alfredo Catalani’s La Wally… and, well, maybe also because of the incriminating tape a hooker on the run from the aforementioned hit squad slipped into his mail pouch…
