So what is Holy Motors? I’d love to tell you, but I can’t tell for the life of me, even after watching this trailer twice. There seems to be some stuff happening with a scarred man with one white eye, a motion capture studio, and Kylie Minogue is singing a song and looking cute with short hair. What I do know is that the film just premiered at Cannes and is one of the most talked about movies at the festival, for good or ill. It’s also director Leos Carax’s first movie in thirteen years. That’s Terrence Malick territory.
While I don’t know much of anything about this movie, I am certainly intrigued by this odd little trailer.
