April March est une Actrice Américaine née le 20 avril 1965 à San Francisco (Etats-Unis)
April March (born Elinor Blake on April 20, 1965) is an American singer-songwriter who sings in English and French. She is widely known for the song "Chick Habit", which was featured in the films But I'm a Cheerleader and Quentin Tarantino's Death Proof.
She is also a cartoon animator, including a stint as a principal animator for the Ren and Stimpy show. She went to California Institute Of The Arts for Character Animation.
As a child, Blake became fascinated with France, and in junior high participated in an exchange program in France. She graduated from Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts in 1983, after which she moved back to New York City to become a cartoon animator. March worked as an animator for Archie Comics and Pee Wee's Playhouse; in 1986 she worked on the Madonna feature Who's That Girl, animating the star in the title sequence and the contemporaneous music video. Her first band, The Pussywillows, was formed in 1987; March took a year off to attend the Disney-founded Character Animation program at the California Institute of the Arts. In 1991 the Pussywillows broke up and March formed The Shitbirds, which lasted until 1995. Since then, March has recorded as a solo artist, and has appeared on some motion picture soundtracks, as well as performing the theme song for the Cartoon Network series I Am Weasel.
Her albums contain songs sung in both English and French, and her style is heavily influenced by French 1960s pop music.
Her best known work is the English translation of the Serge Gainsbourg song, "Laisse tomber les filles", renamed as "Chick Habit." The song has since been featured in the 1999 campy teen comedy But I'm a Cheerleader, and was brought to wider audiences in Quentin Tarantino's 2007 film Death Proof; it was also used as the backing music to television advertisements for the Renault Twingo in the UK and in France in 2008.
Her song, Garcon Glacon, is also featured in the American show, The O.C.
March has collaborated in the U.S. with the Dust Brothers, and in France with Bertrand Burgalat. She has collaborated also with the garage rock band Bassholes. Her collaboration album with Steve Hanft is titled Magic Monsters. It became available via iTunes, Amazon.com, and other digital music distributors on 22 April 2008. The album is available on vinyl format on the label Martyrs of Pop.

À Austin, trois amies, Arlene, Shanna et « Jungle » Julia, disc jockey d'une radio locale, font une virée dans un bar. Elles ignorent qu'elles sont étroitement surveillées par Stuntman Mike, un ancien cascadeur psychopathe qui sillonne les routes en tuant les femmes qu'il trouve sur son chemin. Pour cela il a une méthode bien particulière : il se sert uniquement de sa voiture. Quand les filles quittent le bar avec une amie, Stuntman Mike fait de même en acceptant de raccompagner chez elle Pam, une autre cliente. Il lui vante les mérites de sa voiture, une Chevrolet Nova qui, selon lui, « protège de la mort ». Lorsqu'il prend une autre route pour suivre les filles, Pam se rend compte que quelque chose ne va pas. Stuntman Mike lui explique alors que seul le conducteur est protégé dans sa voiture puis il freine brutalement. Pam, qui n'a pas de ceinture de sécurité, est projetée en avant et sa tête s'écrase sur le tableau de bord. Stuntman Mike rattrape ensuite le véhicule des quatre jeunes femmes et provoque une collision qui leur est fatale. Il s'en tire avec quelques fractures grâce à son véhicule renforcé et son harnais de sécurité. À l’hôpital, le Texas Ranger Earl McGraw explique à son fils et adjoint Edgar qu'il a de sérieux doutes sur la nature accidentelle de la collision mais qu'il ne peut rien prouver.

The fast-paced scenes in Time Piece are edited together in a rhythmic pentameter, with an underlying use of sounds and repetitive beats. The film begins with a young man (who provides only four brief words of dialogue who just quotes "help") sitting patiently in a hospital bed. An unidentified doctor enters the room and checks the man's heart rate, which begins to pulse rhythmically.
