  DVD Times - Dante 01 — A forthcoming new film from Marc Caro
Former artist and comicbook designer, Maro Caro, collaborator with Jean-Pierre Jeunet on Delicatessen and The City of Lost Children, is due to make a long-awaited return to the screens with his first solo project, Dante 01, a dark science-fiction thriller.
Caro’s former filmmaking partner, Jean-Pierre Jeunet meanwhile, is currently working on an adaptation of Yann Martel’s 'Life of Pi', a project that has already been through the hands of M. Night Shyamalan and Alfonso Cuarón.
If Caro refuses to hold his punches (as i think he is inclined to do) this could be splendid.

 Marc Caro - Biography - Moviefone
Beginning with such short films as Le Manège (1980), Caro and Jeunet collaborated on ads, music videos, and shorts throughout the 1980s, drawing on animation and computer effects to create an idiosyncratic style shot through with their mordant sense of humor.
Bringing their unique sensibility to features in the 1990s, Caro and Jeunet scored an international art house hit with their debut film Delicatessen (1991).
While Caro and Jeunet parted ways after The City of Lost Children for their own artistic pursuits, Caro (who had always taken charge of the visuals while Jeunet dealt with the actors) received a design supervisor credit for Jeunet's solo Hollywood debut, Alien Resurrection (1997).

 City of Lost Children - Jeunet and Caro interview
After half an hour of getting your leg pulled by Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Marc Caro, the French duo behind the surreal comedy Delicatessen, you realise that the possibility of wringing out a straight answer is about as likely as them collaborating with Merchant Ivory on a portrait of repressed sexuality and whippet-racing in 1920's Blackburn.
Unless you've seen Jeunet and Caro work, in which case you'll know that "what is in their heads" would make Lewis Caroll look like a shop steward whose only dream is to win the lottery and settle down with his fiancée Beryl.
That, Caro stresses, is because the first film was a comedy, whereas this is a fairy tale.

 The City of Lost Children (1995) (Le Cite des Enfants Perdus)
Marc Caro and Jean-Pierre Jeunet's Delicatessen (1991) was a pure delight - surely the freshest and most delightfully silly comedy of its year.
It is as though one of the period Jules Verne films of the 1950s such as Disney's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (1954) with its Victorian polished brass, metal boilerplates and wrought iron curlicues has been dirtied down and turned into a Dickensian urchin fantasy.
It gives the impression that Caro and Jeunet have become swamped by the size of the film, that the exquisiteness of the decor has cramped the natural freeness of their style.

Like Gilliam, French codirectors Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Marc Caro have wildly inventive imaginations that gravitate to the darker absurdities of human behavior, and their visual extravagance is matched by impressive technical skill.
Here, making their feature debut, Jeunet and Caro present a postapocalyptic scenario set entirely in a dank and gloomy building where the landlord operates a delicatessen on the ground floor.

 Borders - Store Inventory - Title Detail - The City of Lost Children
Revealing a bottomless capacity for invention, Jeunet and Caro tell their story with ruthless precision and flamboyance.
From the eerily airless mise-en-scene to the archetypal familiarity of the characters, the filmmakers' exacting style is tightly controlled and leaves little room for spontaneity.
While not unfounded, the observation is also incomplete, failing to account for the signal pleasures of succumbing to the whims of master raconteurs.

This is a very funny film which, in spite of the storyline, is not as fl as the opening scene would suggest.
Jeunet and Caro's filmographic style is unusual - in fact genuinely surreal in places.
The extraordinary O.T.T. performances from all of the cast members (particularly Pinon and Dougnac), the spooky incidental music, and the creepy sets all add to the bizarre, other-worldliness of this film.

With "The City of Lost Children," directors (and co-screenwriters) Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Marc Caro reach new heights and realize long-held dreams in this, the sixteenth year of their professional collaboration.

That combination of lovely and irritating is fitting for this festival, which does a lot of things right but manages to get enough little things wrong that you can feel itchy.
Kudos to Mayor Daley for kicking off the festivities; too bad he referred to the director of the shot-in-Chicago comedy “Stranger Than Fiction” as “Marc Foster” instead of Forster.
Hoffman, who co-stars in “Stranger Than Fiction” with Ferrell, was one of the festival’s worthier recipients of the Gold Hugo Lifetime Achievement Award, presented before the screening began.

 Marc Caro
Très tôt dans le projet Vidocq, Pitof a chargé Marc Caro de dessiner des "portraits-robots" des personnages tels qu'ils s'esquissaient dans la version originale du scénario.
Caro a donc commencé à travailler à partir de caricatures et de gravures de l'époque, afin d'établir un "casting 1830".
Pour le compte de la société Eskwad, le cinéaste Marc Caro, fidèle collaborateur de Jean-Pierre Jeunet, prépare actuellement avec le romancier Pierre Bordage un premier long métrage fantastique intitulé "Dante XXI".

It is not as good as "The city of Lost Children" (creater by Jeunet & Caro) or "Amelie" (created by Jeunet)...
Like Gilliam, co-directors Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Marc Caro hail from an animation background, and have a fondness for extravagant visuals, absurdist plot twists, and a sense of humor that combines sharp satire with broad slapstick and gross-out imagery.
This mixture may displease the weak of stomach, but those attuned to the film's sensibility will be delighted by the obvious technical virtuosity and wicked sense of humor.

In a post-apocalyptic society where food is so rare it's invaluable and used as currency and people eat each other a young clown applies for a job at a local delicatessen.
On to this slim story, writer-directors Jeunet and Caro pile a wealth of delicious comic detail.
Each grotesquely larger-than-life inhabitant of the scrofulous tenement has his own little story; visually, the film evokes Gilliam, Lynch, the Coens and Carné, but the allusions never get in the way of the nightmarish humour.

Directors Marc Caro and Jean-Pierre Jeunet devised the film with writer Gilles Adrien, primarily an author of comic books; given its unique visuals, it makes sense that the similarly inventive Terry Gilliam (Brazil) championed the film's worldwide release.
