...rendered with the puppeteer’s elbow-grease so common in Gondry films. And while in the past dialogue has rarely been Gondry’s strong suit, here the chemistry between the young couple—and between the couple and the city itself—combines humor and emotion in charming turns.Monstrosity in its most grotesque is Carax’s fascination in “Merde,” and its form is not quite human. The title character is a sewer-roving satyr-beast who terrorizes the streets of Tokyo in broad daylight?...
