Zazie in the Metro (original French title: Zazie dans le Métro, sometimes called Zazie) is a 1960 French film directed by Louis Malle, based on the novel by Raymond Queneau.

Plot

Provincial 10-year-old Zazie stays in Paris with her Uncle Gabriel (a female impersonator) for two days, while her mother spends some time with her lover. Zazie manages to evade her uncle's custody, however, and, métro strike notwithstanding, sets out to explore the city on her own.

In the film, Zazie is younger than in the book (in which her mother is worried about Zazie's virginity).[1]

Cast

Reception

Decades after its release, Jonathan Rosenbaum wrote that it was "arguably Louis Malle’s best work...A rather sharp, albeit soulless, film, packed with ideas and glitter and certainly worth a look."[2]

Home video

A digitally restored version of the film was released on DVD and Blu-ray by The Criterion Collection in June 2011.[3]
