Ha, French films seem to get you people stuck, eh? ;)
Well, I'll still try  to make you guess it with another hint:
Spoiler
Another film by this director has served as an inspiration for one of the Terry Gilliam's movies

Ponch, yes, it is Sans Soleil, thank you. And now you are legally obliged to watch it! :P

All those moments... will be lost... in time, like tears... in... rain."

Sans Soleil?

What does that mean, anyways? "Not Enough Sun"? Must learn that strange language someday.

How did you do ???

It wasn't easy. I went to IMDB to see how many French films had been made without a naked Sophie Marceau in them. Turns out there have been quite a few. (What the hell, French film industry?! Sophie should be in all your movies!) Then, having learned how many movies I would have to watch that didn't feature gratuitous Sophie nudity, I gave up and goggled "French film makers who have inspired Terry Gilliam". From there, it was just a series of "Chris Marker" google image searches until I found a movie still with porcelain cats in them. (My kung fu is strong!  :D )

So, yes, I cheated. But this thread was in danger of losing its mojo. I had no choice! ;)

And now, without further adieu, here's my next movie clue:


Enjoy!

Big Trouble in Little China?

Ooh, so close! Oh wait, I meant not close at all.  :=

Domino

Spoiler
of course, another classic 80's flick

Death Becomes Her!

It is an elixir (of sorts), but not from that movie. Try again!

Dr Jekyll's potion from LXG?

...or it could be one of those expensive Coco Chanel commercials.

My thought was - if that potion was pink it would totally be Death becomes her.
But not only that, that elixir was sort of magically freestanding on one sharp point, so it's not that.

Meh, I never even saw that film.

But elixirs are cool, so maybe I should.
