Le Critique de Film

Last night, after the cookies were baked, we watched Paris, je t'aime. What a delight! It's a collaboration of 18 diverse directors who came up with 18 5-minute short films that take place in paris and center around the general theme of different types of love. Then the 18 were sewn together into one long movie. I decided that I enjoyed 11 of the 18. 11 were really watchable, 7 were just alright and/or hard to understand. mais oui! fenetre zut alors je ne parle francais. ahem. where was i?  
 Oh yes- I liked these: #2, Quais de Seine 5, Loin du 16e 7, Bastille 9, Tour Eiffel 10, Parc Monceau 12, Place des fĂȘtes 13, Pigalle 14, Quartier de la Madeleine 16, Faubourg Saint-Denis 17, Quartier Latin 18, 14e arrondissement

Anywho, it's heartwarming, sad, comical, scary, etcetera and aptly portrays the depths of human emotions. Elijah Wood even falls in love with a vampire. {And, potentially good news, a similar movie entitled new york, i love you is being released} Now, as for the rest of my recommendations-- I'll have to get to those another time. But let's just say mi husby y yo be fans of the foreign. <!--[if gte mso 9]> Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE

  1. Thank you for sharing some with me. I really enjoyed them and felt cultured at the same time! My favorite was probably the Iranian one.
