Subway (1985)

Another 1985 film, along with Trouble in Mind, that I discovered only in the past five years but immediately fell in love with. They are both movies about dreamworlds, both influenced by post-punk New Wave fashion and hairstyles, both exuding retro-Hollywood cool and romantic melancholy. I like a lot of films from this era -- even if I didn't see them at the time, so it's not just nostalgia. These two movies share a visual and design sensibility with Diva (1981) and Blade Runner (1982) too, for example.

I was tempted to post three blue screen caps, because there's a lot of blue in the movie, but then I opted to post three that were devoid of the lead characters instead.

Although the French-speaking parts of Belgium and Canada make great beer, so it's not the language itself.
