What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Audio details are film-specific: Boy Meets Girl and Mauvais sang are listed with uncompressed monaural sound, while The Lovers on the Bridge is listed with 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio. The listing describes the set as three Blu-rays with new 4K digital restorations, so do not interpret this Blu-ray edition as a 4K UHD disc set. The release date is listed as September 29, 2026.

Who is it for?

A good fit for

Viewers collecting Leos Carax's early features in a single edition.
Fans of Denis Lavant, Juliette Binoche, French-language cinema, or Criterion special features.
Collectors interested in interviews, documentaries, production footage, and film essays.

Less suited to

Buyers specifically seeking 4K UHD discs rather than a Blu-ray set.
Viewers who need an English-dubbed presentation, as the listing specifies French audio and English subtitles.
