The Beat That My Heart Skipped [Blu-ray] [US]

Release Date: 23/9/2025

A riveting character study in the guise of a gritty underworld thriller, Jacques Audiard's international breakthrough features an explosive performance from Romain Duris as a real-estate broker torn between the dirty dealings of his slumlord father (Niels Arestrup) and his recently rekindled love for classical piano. Can music offer salvation from a life of sin? Winner of eight César Awards, including Best Film, this bold reimagining of the New Hollywood cult classic Fingers showcases Audiard's gift for balancing breathtaking tension with galvanic human drama.
