"Buffet Froid"
1980
Directed by Bertrand Blier

Filled with black humor, Blier's highly original thriller features Gerard Depardieu. Structured as an absurdly hilarious nightmare, the film's logic is twisted and stark: what do you do if you've been unemployed for six months, your wife has disappeared, and you find yourself looking at your own knife sticking out of the belly of a fellow subway passenger--and you can't remember how it got there? French with English subtitles.
95 minutes.
