An atypical couple runs away from the law and Algerian pursuers.
A fragmented and mixed cinematic experiment that contains popular elements from the world of cinema, with its clichés and metaphors hidden under literary quotes. The film is in fact an attack on traditionalism and on modern pragmatism both in cinema itself and in real life and at the same time it's also an ode to cinema and the world of dreams that it encourages and enriches. It's admirable as a revolutionary act, but Pierrot le Fou does not pause long enough to allow the audience to care even a little about the characters beyond this cinematic Dadaism this film became.
