AngelA


Written and Directed by: Luc Besson
Year of Release: 2005
Country: France
Runtime: 90 min.(original)
Luc Besson's this last movie resembles to a black and white fairytale. In this film in which Rie Rasmussen and Jamel Debbouze were sharing the leading roles, the ungifted Andree has millions of dollars debt to everyone in town. He wants to make that the police arrest him and put in prison; however, he can't achieve that. As he was about to commit a suicide, he suddenly recognizes the beautiful lady with long legs who was intended the same destiny with him. Angela this long-legged lady was an angel whose mission was to survive Andree from his faith. Together they engage in a lot of actions, and Andree finds himself finally engaging in a deep love with Angela.
This lovely romance combines fantastic elements with emotional scenes as most Besson films. As a Luc Besson fan, I should profess that I didn't like this film as his other films. However, the fact that film was black and white, and included the familiar themes with all Besson films made me enjoy this film.
The film haven't won or nominated any awards. Watch it for fun! It surely makes fun!
