I don't know if it's time to watch this movie.

Paris has long been gone from my life, and I have never loved the city and left no memories, but in the end, the background looks beautiful in the movie.

The 18 stories interpreted by these great directors show 18 different lives under this beautiful background. Whether they meet or leave, are sad or happy, the results are all positive. Let us once again believe that no matter how ordinary and tragic life is, it is possible A miracle will happen suddenly, this miracle is either romantic true love, or a sudden self-recognition.

At this time, my life is stagnant, seemingly peaceful, but in fact turbulent. I may be someone who is too eager for quick success. I can’t sit calmly and watch the sky rise and the clouds are clear. I am always too anxious to jump down to see who I will meet in the next second. I think I can walk aimlessly, but in fact, I always follow others. Steps, take the details as life, and defeat is nothing more than this.

To encounter such a movie at such a time is nothing to a person whose life has been almost ruined by literature and art.

Maybe it has something to do with my current state. Among the 18 short films, I prefer the one by Olivier Assayas. His films are dedicated to showing the essence of a bright life and expressing what is only pleasing under the plot. The small emotions of the meeting, those emotions, make people feel that he understands women so well that he has to wonder if he is really bisexual. The same is true of this short film. Life is ordinary for everyone, celebrities or drug dealers, there are moments of loneliness that are restrained and uncontrollable, those contacts that are eager and afraid, the appearance is full of beauty, and the inside is just as selfish and clumsy as we are, lacking courage.

After watching this movie yesterday, I received a call to talk about ordinary life.

Yes, who is not a person with a story, watching these 18 stories, blocking the background of this city, is nothing more than peeping at the window of the neighbor opposite, and suddenly smiling or crying. The life of this other person may make you curious or empathize with you, but in the end we all know that in the story of what can or can't be done, no one will have the answer until tomorrow, life will always force us to move on, in every gorgeous or Dirty corners, not just Paris.

    Originally, I was a bit repulsive to French and French, but this film made me fall in love with Paris.

    Some stories are a bit absurd, and some stories I like very much. I feel like I want to cry at the end. This is the case in every city. Different stories happen in different corners. Maybe everyone has inadvertently intersected, which is a bit strange.

Paris, je t'aime quotes

  • The Husband: [In voice-over narration] By acting like a man in love, he became a man in love again.

  • Carol: Sitting there, alone in a foreign country, far from my job and everyone I know, a feeling came over me. It was like remembering something I'd never known before or had always been waiting for, but I didn't know what. Maybe it was something I'd forgotten or something I've been missing all my life. All I can say is that I felt, at the same time, joy and sadness. But not too much sadness, because I felt alive. Yes, alive. That was the moment I fell in love with Paris. And I felt Paris fall in love with me.
