Love takes in many forms, but the most unpredictable could only happen in Paris

Paris is such a surreal presence, anachronic with the hopes, dreams, and beauties of every era, every artistic ambition, every genius, and every sublime ideal, that ever happened to France, layered, interwined, morphed, and melted together, in each detail of the texture with the depth and variations of infinity that formed Paris.

This setting can rationalize the most bizarre and make the ridiculous divine. What happened in Paris never touched the world of the vulgar and the mundane. What begotten in a world of art is a work of art itself. Paris sheds a light of polishedness, elegance, and culture even on her most unseeming offspring.

The stories are heart-warming, eye-opening, thought-provoking, soul-elevating, and most importantly, film-making-innovating. The new story-telling styles perfectly complements the sentiments to be conveyed and tell the most of the various incarnations of Paris unique to her observers at her different facets.

Paris is the city of light, the beacon of civilization, the bulwark against utilitarianism, the home of the artists, and the land of the dreamers. Besides all this, Paris, in her most defining character, is the heaven for the lovers. Love takes in many forms, but the most unpredictable could only happen in Paris.

It's hard to think of the French as religious considering how iconoclastic they usually behave. But when Paris is lit, you cannot believe otherwise but that the glory of God is revealed in this flame of human comedy.

    Some stories are worth reading and re-reading, and some stories can stay in your heart just by reading them once.

    The most incomprehensible part is Du Kefeng's part; the funniest part is Cohen's part; the most impressive is the story of the clown in the Eiffel Tower; the part of Natalie and Binoche is good; Garfield's part is average; The touching coffee; Wilde's romance; Wood's vampires left me speechless; but in the end, Alexander Payne's middle-aged women were the ones that brought tears to my eyes the most. . I think maybe that's me in 10 years, and that's actually not bad. .

  • Bob Leander: Can't we walk together?

    Fanny Forestier: I'm so ashamed.

    Bob Leander: Why? You did it out of love, I assume.

    Fanny Forestier: And what do you do, out of love?

    Bob Leander: I ache... for who we were.

  • Gaspard: [in French] Haven't we met? I'm sure I know you. Where do you live? I'm in the 17th. Maybe I've seen you around. You don't talk much. I'm not sure, but... I feel like I've seen you before. You look like a mystical guy. Really, you have a very special aura. You believe in spirits? I'm way into that stuff. Maybe we met in a past lifetime.

    Elie: [in French] Light?

    Gaspard: [in French] A light.

    [lights his cigarette]

    Elie: Merci.

    Gaspard: It's amazing. As soon as I saw you, I needed to talk. It's like... I don't know. A strong, weird feeling. I thought, if I don't talk to you before I go, I'd be missing out on... something... important. Beautiful. You work in a beautiful place. I didn't want to miss the chance to talk to you. It's dumb, but... Never mind. May I?

    [sits down]

    Gaspard: You believe in soul mates? Finding your other half? You like jazz? Charlie Parker... and Kurt Cobain. I love him! Whatever. Here's my number. I'd really like to talk with you, if you call me, more seriously and... for longer, especially.

    Printer: [in French] Call him and see.

    Elie: [takes off running]
