are people with stories

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.

    I watched this film two years ago, and I chopped it off after half an hour. It wasn't until a few days ago that he re-watched it that Hemingway's profound meaning was understood. "If you are lucky enough to go to Paris when you are young, then no matter where you go, it will follow you forever. Paris is a mobile feast."

    Some people say that romance is only the appearance of France, it is spiritual freedom at all. Most of the short films are about the recovery and reappearance of love. The clown is funny but nothing new, the unrequited love is nothing but a good-looking picture, and the long-shot illusion is an old trick. I have to pick my favorites on the Cohen Travel Guide and the Van Sant Language Barrier, and it feels good to be all in love under the same sky at the end. I still prefer New York I love you

Paris, je t'aime quotes

  • Zarka: You're even worse at this than getting girls.

    Franois: My friends do that stuff, not me.

    Zarka: They're pathetic.

    Franois: You have beautiful hair, why do you have to cover it up?

    Zarka: I don't have to. I choose to.

    Franois: Too bad, 'cause you're so pretty.

    Zarka: You mean I'm not beautiful in my hijab?

    Franois: [laughs] That's not what I meant.

    Zarka: You and your friends don't know shit about women. Why talk to them like that? When you can see they don't like it? If I want to look beautiful, I do it for me. When I wear this I feel part of a faith, an identity. I feel good. That's what beauty is. Tell that to your friends. Then maybe one day, they might even get laid.

  • Carol: Sometimes I think it would be nice to have someone, with whom to share this life.
