MBC Interactive Archive Project: “Rebels of the 1970s”
JE T’AIME, MOI NON PLUS
(Presented by the Miami Beach Film Society)
Inspired by their controversial pop hit song with the same name, music superstar Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin made this equally controversial film that became France’s biggest cult favorite. Birkin stars as a boyish wandering truck stop waitress who meets a “mostly gay” garbage truck driver (Joe Dallessandro). They enter a complex relationship that enrages the other partner (Hugues Quester) and stirs up a provocative picture of 1970s free but complicated love.
