Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris transforms Mort Shuman and Eric Blau's beloved 35-song stage revue into an infectious movie musical that showcases both Brel's astonishing songwriting breadth and the resourceful audacity of 70's filmmaking. Brel's richly sensual and uncompromising songs provide a simultaneously ecstatic and tragic framework for this flamboyant and moving film.
