Eschewing conventional narrative, “Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris” transforms Mort Shuman and Eric Blau's beloved 35-song stage revue into an infectious movie musical that showcases both Brel's songwriting breadth and the resourceful audacity of 70's filmmaking. Director Denis Heroux utilizes everything from puppetry to location photography to shepherd us far beyond the stage.
