Back in March, we celebrated the tenth anniversary of Michel Gondry’s Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, but the director actually has another complicated romance about star-crossed lovers coming to American theaters soon. It’s the French-language Mood Indigo, starring Romain Duris as a wealthy, whimsical inventor whose true love (Audrey Tautou) is laid low when a water lily begins to grow in her lungs. (As far as romantic complications go, that’s a new one!) The movie, adapted from the Boris Vian novel Froth on the Daydream, is out in New York and Los Angeles on July 18, but Vulture can continue to stoke your interest with an exclusive clip of the film’s first kiss between Duris and Tautou. It perhaps doesn’t go as planned, but as Tautou assures her beau, there will be plenty more to come.
