Xavier Dolan shows how extraordinary it can be when the magic of music and cinema unite. The sequences he has crafted cloud the boundaries between music video and film.

I chose a few movie scenes and songs that got me addicted to his work to an extent that the songs and the scenes are now inseparable.

It’s almost like Dolan has a particular sound. This sound.

Music and scenes from the movies:

• I Killed My Mother (2009)
• Heartbeats (2010)
• Laurence Anyways (2012)
• Mommy (2014)
• It’s Only the End of the World (2016)
• The Death & Life of John F. Donovan (2018)
• Matthias & Maxime (2019)
