I'm looking for a french film called ''Pour l'Éternité'', directed by Paul Métairy.
For those who know the film ''Teenagers'', it was an edit of three different feature-length films including Pour l'Éternité.
I think it used to be possible to order it directly from the director's website, but unfortunately that site is now closed.
I'm wondering if there is anyone who might have access to a copy.

According to IMDB says the director is the famous Paul Verhoeven

Different Paul Verhoeven. There are 4 at IMDB, and this is NOT the "Showgirls" one. This one later changed his name.

The everybodywiki link says:

Paul Simon Louis Alexis de Métairy is a French filmmaker, organist and physicist-mathematician, born in Ninove (Belgium) on April 25, 1942, under the surname "Verhoeven". By decree of July 21, 2015 [1] he recovered the former family surname “de Métairy” and French nationality.

Interestingly, the infamous Dutch one that everyone knows ALSO has a degree in math and physics!

Looks like a boy movie so you'll probably have better luck asking in a forum that is focused toward those.

O.K. thanks, I thought this would have been an appropriate place for this actually.
Do you know of any offhand?

I've actually tried reaching out to the director himself as he used to sell his films through his site but so far, no luck.

I didn't find exactly what you were looking for, but here's what I dug up:

If I find more, I'll let you know.

Boys are certainly allowed at FLM, but traditionally the focus has been more on girls. Officially, it is a site about CHILDREN in film. But for sites that focus more on boys in film, see:

https://the.nextthing.club/
http://blizzardkid.net/

Both are terrific sites and require registration and login to see any useful links or to post. Nextthing is English language, blizzardkid is Russian. You can use Chrome page translate and Google translate, but I have never posted there. I am not quite sure how silly I might appear relying on Google English-to-Russian translation.

NEITHER site has this movie, I already looked a few days ago. Nextthing appears to have "Teenagers", so there is at least interest.

Thanks Walter, yeah I think that's pretty much all that's left of the old links from de Métairy's site...
I knew about ''Un Enfant de Lumière'' but only found out about ''Pour l'Éternité'' recently, so I know it's not a myth
I reached out to de Métairy on his YT account actually; no response.

Thanks for the suggestions, Night457!

I found out recently that the director passed away a bit over a year ago...

I've been trying to reach him; no wonder I haven't heard back...
