After that Jeunet directed two other short movies without the help of Caro: Pas de repos pour Billy Brakko (1984), then Foutaises (1989) where we could already see Dominique Pinon who will be another regular collaborator of Jeunet.
This project took more than 4 more years to be carried out but the movie is enormous: Cité des enfants perdus, La (1995) was a fl tale and was so innovative at this period that they needed to create new softwares for the special effects (mostly made by Pitof).
Jeunet and Caro kept the same responsibilities as in Delicatessen (1991) and the movie also combined different international skills: American actor Ron Perlman, Chilean-born actor Daniel Emilfork, Iranian cinematographer Darius Khondji (who was already in the crew of Delicatessen (1991)), Americo-Italian composer Angelo Badalamenti and French fashion-designer Jean-Paul Gaultier for the costumes.

IMDb user comments for Pas de repos pour Billy Brakko (1984)
It offers optional endings for you to choose Billy's eventual fate, a "fabulous destiny" which must be seen to be believed!
Much of Jeunet's playful style is already firmly in evidence; he claims his early influences were animation, like Terry Gilliam's similarly surreal Python animations, so he learned to storyboard virtually frame by frame.

Numerous scenes were shot in front of blue or green screens and it was even necessary, at times, to have surveyors on set to simplify the addition of different shots (real or entirely digitally created) onto the same image during post-production.
For example, to create the scene involving period road traffic in the Place de l'Opéra, the filmmakers first had to shoot the Place de l'Opéra as it is today, at a moment when it was deserted.
Then on a huge open-air esplanade at an automobile test center, all the period vehicles and the extras in full costume were shot, milling about in every direction.
