Hairdresser's Husband, The

VHS, R, 84 minutes, PARAMOUNT

"Passionate...shear bliss." Time It happens at an early age. We size up the world and decide to become movie stars, presidents or shortstops. Later, we settle in as line workers or desk jockeys and hope we'll someday get a life. But ever since he was a boy, Antoine wanted to get a wife. Not just any wife. Antoine must be "The Hairdresser's Husband". Erotic obsession and its mad-love fulfillment are the focus of this acclaimed comic romance from Patrice Leconte ("Monsieur Hire"). Jean Rochfort ("The Tall Blond Man With One Black Shoe") plays Antoine, who finds shear ecstasy in a hair salon. And Anna Galiena is the beautiful coiffeuse who, instead of saying "next," says "I do" to dotty determined Antoine. The salon becomes their idyllic paradise. But how long can a perfect love last?.
