(via CANNES REVIEW: Leos Carax Makes a Nutty Comeback With ‘Holy Motors,’ But Don’t Expect Easy Answers | Filmmakers, Film Industry, Film Festivals, Awards & Movie Reviews | Indiewire)

“In one sequence, Oscar reprises the role of ‘Merde,’ the elfin vagrant Lavant hilariously portrayed in the segment Carax directed for the omnibus film ‘Tokyo!’ Here, Merde mortifies a crowd, steals an American model played by Eva Mendes from a cemetery photo shoot, takes her down to her sewer lair, strips naked and curls into her lap as she sings him a lullaby. Elsewhere, he engages in knife play with a body double, follows a former flame through an empty building as she bursts out in song, plays the frustrated father to a rebellious adolescent, and performs a deathbed speech under the guise of a wrinkly old man. In a motion-capture studio, he dry humps a woman in a full body suit covered in lights as CGI beasts mimic their actions on a big screen. On the street, he briefly begs for change. The barrage of moments only reach a climax when Oscar finally goes home for the night — but even then,’ Holy Motors’ has a few surprises in store.”

OK, I’m officially intrigued.
