Belleville Rendez-vous
(Les triplettes de Belleville)
瘋狂約會美麗都

Synopsis
-

The music-hall opening sequence pays homage to the “Black Venus” Josephine Baker, an American-born performer who moved to Paris in 1925 and whose banana skirt and exotic/erotic dance dazzled the 1920s Paris. This oddball animated feature in silent film style recounts how Madame Souza has brought up her grandson Champion to become a Tour de France cyclist but Champion is kidnapped by the French mafia during the race. Madame Souza pedals a paddleboat to Belleville (New York) with her dog Bruno in pursuit of Champion. The Triplets of Belleville, who were background singers to Josephine Baker, lend Madame Souza more than a helping hand.

電影簡介

影片開場的歡樂懷舊歌舞是向1925年從美國來到巴黎發展的爵士女伶「黑人維納斯」Josephine Baker致敬,她穿性感香蕉裙跳異國情慾舞的招牌形象風靡1920年代的巴黎。這部默片風格的狂想動畫講述蘇沙婆婆帶大男孩冠軍成為自行車選手,冠軍參加環法自行車賽時被黑手黨綁架。蘇沙婆婆與家狗Bruno腳踏船千里尋孫追到美麗都(紐約),曾為Josephine Baker幫腔的合音天使美麗都三姊妹助蘇沙婆婆一臂之力。別樹一格的畫風,明快的敍事,以及風趣幽默的點子,看得人熱血沸騰,舞步停不了。
