Paris - the Movie
Attended a fully booked showing of the film: Paris, shown in Paddington, accompanied by my daughter.
Paris - the Movie belongs to the following groups:
ParisThoroughly enjoyed the film: Paris, last night, in Paddington (Sydney).
My daughter has tickets for the French Film Festival. Someone (not the young man with whom she is in a relationship, as it is expressed nowadays, but another fellow) had discovered that he could not attend and I was invited.
She and I agreed, afterwards, walking back to one of the little side streets of Paddington, where her little car was parked, that we agree with the description on the Alliance Francaise website (see below).
We were both into the movie. Not just because the setting is so Paris! and (she spent at least a year there and I was there very briefly two days at a time, in 1972, and in 2005.) 
On the Alliance Francaise website
it says:
Paris, (made in) France 2007 – Drama
Director: Cédric Klapisch
With: Romain Duris, Juliette BinocheThe cast is one of the most dazzling assembled in recent memory – Juliette Binoche, Romain Duris, Fabrice Luchini, François Cluzet, Albert Dupontel, Karin Viard and Mélanie Laurent to name just a few.
The story begins with Pierre (Duris), a young man unexpectedly confronted with his own mortality. For the next 24 hours, his tour through the city will weave with those of his beloved sister, his neighbours (some known, some not), their friends and workmates, and their interconnected stories of love, familial bonds, loneliness and compassion come together in unexpected ways.
This emotional and inspiring ode to Paris will have you entranced.
My daughter tells me it’s true, all those actors are very well known but on the path that I’ve taken in recent years there have not been many trips to the cinema and certainly not French movies.
Only briefly did I recognise that I had walked exactly on the same rooftop of the tallest building in Paris, ( as a character, in the film ), where my daughter wisely took me in 2005, having teased me enough, along with her brother, in previous years about my fear of heights, from where I could look towards the Eiffel Tower, on a flat solid roof, behind a chest-high wall. 
The cinema was fully booked. The audience was obviously “entranced”. It was another very pleasant, very successful outing with my now adult daughter. 
In 2005 she and I had lunch, in Musée d’Orsay. That was great too!

I’ll keep this movie title in mind. I have never been in Paris. I have been in the South of France, but never in the city of light. I can imagine you really enjoyed your stay there. Have you seen the movie High Anxiety from Mel Brooks?
Ozcloggie replied
I believe I’ve seen High Anxiety, Martin. If not, then bits of it. Obviously not made a strong enough impression.
I’m not sure how last nights viewing of the film Paris would have affected me, if I’d not been to Paris but I suspect I would have still been as impressed.
In January, 1972, by myself, it was such a different experience to how much I enjoyed being there in 2005, with my daughter, on the two weekends and going to Cap d’Agde, during the week days.
Next time, if there ever can be one, I WOULD like to see more of the south of France. Perhaps even meet up with my cousin, Hans, at his holiday apartment.

Ya reminding me when I sent my first shot film’s entry in cannes! that was my student project though! nice memories ya collected in pics! cheers
Ozcloggie replied
I’ve been an extra in a students’ film, Ushna, here in Sydney. (Details you don’t want to know.) As part of her course, at UTS (University of Technology, Sydney, my daughter and fellow students, completed a student project too. Since then she has changed directions, a little bit , studying for a degree in event management. I suppose it’s all related.
