Music Mondays Presents La Brune Et Moi
Tonight, Alamo Music Mondays presents an encore screening of Philippe Puicouyoul's 1980 New Wave love story La Brune Et Moi.
The story revolves around a hot young French girl who's desperate for punk-rock superstardom, and a rich businessman who tries his best to buy it for her. But of course, the underdeveloped plot is just an excuse to showcase a long list of French punk bands, including Ici Paris, Artefact, Astroflash, Edith Nylon, The Questions, The Party, Marquis de Sade, Dogs, Go-Go Pigalles, Taxi Girl and Les Prives.
Loud-as-hell garage rockers The Teeners will play a set before the film, so get there on time.
And while we've got your attention, it's also worth mentioning that Music Mondays and Terror Thursdays will go on hiatus while the Alamo Downtown is relocating—so you've only got three more installments of each until they start up again in late August or early September. But don't worry Weird Wednesday fans, that series will temporarily move to the South Lamar theatre until the new digs are complete (which is cool, but means that you may accidentally brush up against people leaving a late screening of Harry Potter. Eww!).
