The Moon in the Gutter with: Mr. Michel’s Dog June 2, 2009

One night only see Jean-Jacques Beineix's The Moon in the Gutter and Mr. Michel's Dog at American Cinematheque at The Egyptian Theatre.
***Q&A with Jean-Jaques Beineix following the screening.

The Moon in the Gutter pairs international stars Gerard Depardieu and Nastassia Kinski. In an urban netherworld, a despondent man named Gerard roams the streets, hunting for the perpetrator who raped his sister. She later took her own life. A gallery of grotesque types populates Gerard's netherworld. He suspects a waterfront drunkard and his cherubic sister, both of whom have crucial information about the rape. But Gerard may be hiding something.

Mr. Michel's Dog
Mr. Michel is poor and friendless. To fill his lonely life he makes up a dog, providing the vocal effects himself. When his disgruntled neighbors get on his case, he drowns his imaginary dog and falls into silence and depression. His sheepish neighbors then offer him a real dog.
