Memorable Quotes and Dialog:

"...an elaborate French exercise in cinematic Dadaism."
  - Bosley Crowther, THE NEW YORK TIMES (11/21/1961)

Entertainment Reviews:

Sight and Sound - 09/01/2011
"[ZAZIE DANS LE METRO] seems the indisputable starting-point of the Swinging 60s, and a particular influence on the films of Richard Lester and The Beatles."

Product Description:

On a visit to her Parisian transvestite uncle, boisterous, vulgar Zazie proves even more outlandish than he. Her adolescent pranks and wide-open mind make for circus-like adventures reminiscent of Curious George and Madeline, and all are rendered with affectionate madness.

Plot Synopsis:

A sassy young girl embarks on a madcap Parisian adventure when she visits her transvestite uncle and takes a raucous sightseeing tour of the city. In true slapstick fashion, she encounters various nutty characters and unusual situations, culminating in a food fight in a cafe.
