GAITE PARISIENNE
Today's Romain Duris film is the last until three or four more come out of the "not released" queue. Cedric Klapische'
This is an anthology film with Duris and Juliette Binoche at the top of the list of stars.
Vignettes. With the city of Paris as the real star.
It is nice enough and a bit involving but not too much. I did not decide that I have to move there.
Duris plays a nightclub dancer who develops a bad heart and, with his sister Binoche, awaits a transplant.
He sees the city through new eyes. Eventually he sees everyone else in the film that we have seen right along.
It is a nice film with great scenes between the two stars and a lot more besides.
I saw it before and I will probably see it again someday. It won a prize at Cannes, but come on, the french vote for the french. It is good anyway. A 5 out of Netflix5 because I want to watch it all happen over and over.
