Teaser for Jeunet's Micmacs à tire-larigot

A brief, French-language teaser for Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s Micmacs à tire-larigot, his first film since 2004’s A Very Long Engagement, has arrived online courtesy of Twitchfilm. From what we can gather here, Danny Boon plays a man with a bullet lodged in his skull and Jeunet is flexing the same fabulist ramshackle world-building muscles which saw the likes of Delicatessen and City of Lost Children leave such an impression. But fret not, Amélie acolytes: the filmmaker’s sense of feathery magic-realist whimsy would also seem to be on generous display.

Dominique Pinon, Séraphine’s Yolande Moreau and Jean-Pierre Marielle co-star.
