Paris: Ensemble Eclair . . .

Films/DVD Asylum

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

The French make some of the best movies because they make movies about people not things. So often you feel like you know the characters better than the story and that is such a revelation compared to our own films. "Paris" has so many characters and stories that it is nearly impossible to recap without detailed notes....
Romain Duris (played Moliere) is a professional dancer whose career has been cut short by a bad heart. He waits for a transplant and his divorced sister (Juliet Binoche) moves in with her four children to watch after him. This is the anchor point of the film from which all other characters relate and orbit.
The theme is "Paris" and its beauty, eternal qualities and its mix of people who live and love there. We see many combinations of 'amour' and feel kindred to so much of it. This film is two hours long and a pleasure to watch.
This is not a hardcore cinematic art but a celebration of the human spirit that is a joy to watch. This is the best ensemble work I can recall seeing.
