Moon in the Gutter


The Moon in the Gutter French La Lune dans le caniveau is a 1983 French drama film directed by JeanJacques Beineix. It was entered into the 1983 Cannes Film Festival.

Two women Loretta Nastassja Kinski, a wealthy amateur photographer who prowls the docks in her early 60s Ferrari 250 GT California Spyder looking for handsome men, and Bella Victoria Abril, a poor but beautiful woman who is probably a prostitute, share affections for a dock worker named Gerard played by Grard Depardieu. He is obsessed by the memory of his sister, who was raped and then committed suicide in a back alley, which he visits every night. No one knows who committed the rape, and he has sworn to avenge the crime, if he can only figure out who the perpetrator was.Although the movie was a failure when first released, it had a number of cult admirers. In the mid1980s it was often screened as a fashionable late night art movie for esoteric clubs such as the Edinburgh Academy Cinema Society. ........
