Have you ever been driving through East South Dale while houses go up for sale? Meet a girl while selling CDs and you let her take a ride in your Caddy? What if that Caddy had fucked that girl? This is the question that the French ask in Titane[2021].
This is a movie so French, it’s taking a smoke break before rioting over the suit color of the prime minister. A girl gets a metal plate installed in he head after a car accident, grows up to murder people and have sex with a car. She gets pregnant by the car, runs away as she’s being hunted for murder, and assumes the identity of a boy who disappeared over a decade ago.
Weltall has Layer Cake[2004]. Before he was known for being James Bond, Daniel Craig played a cocaine dealer who was planning on retiring. Naturally, he gets saddled with one last job before he can get out. A few million pounds of ecstasy, a princess of sorts, and many thugs trying to kill him.
Tim has Kazaam(1996). A long time ago, Shaq wanted to be an actor. So they found a couple of scripts nobody else was doing anything with and cranked them out. This was one where he plays a genie who resides in a Boombox and raps. He is awakened by a kid named Max, who can’t think of anything he really wants from a genie other than junk food.
