Les Amants du Pont-Neuf Japan Laserdisc ASLF-1057 Binoche Carax Widescreen
Up for sale is the Japanese LaserDisc release of Les Amants du Pont-Neuf (The Lovers on the Bridge, 1991), Leos Carax's visually stunning and notoriously ambitious romantic drama starring Juliette Binoche and Denis Lavant. The film follows two young vagrants — a fire-breathing street performer and a painter slowly going blind — who fall in love on Paris's oldest bridge during the French Bicentennial. One of the most celebrated and visually audacious French films of its era, championed by Martin Scorsese and regarded as a landmark of 1990s world cinema. This is catalog number ASLF-1057, a 3-sided CLV set distributed in Japan by Amuse Video/Pioneer LDC, presented in widescreen (Vista Size) with a French Dolby Surround stereo audio track and Japanese/French subtitles. The full inner gatefold includes Japanese liner notes, a Carax filmography, Binoche and Lavant biographies, production notes, and the complete 11-song music listing.
The teal cover is in excellent condition — clean, vibrant, and free of notable wear. The inner gatefold is equally clean and well-preserved. There are minor handwritten markings (appears to be Japanese inventory notation) on the lower back cover. Discs appear clean. No OBI strip is included with this copy.
