Hemingway said: "If you are lucky enough to stay in Paris when you are young, Paris will always be with you wherever you go for the rest of your life, because it is a mobile feast."
Fall in love with Paris because of the encounter of art, nostalgia and romance; this is Woody Allen's tribute to Bunuel!
A city, a novel, a poem, a painting, a literary youth, a dream, a rain, a journey, a movie, a Woody Allen.
The charm of Paris lies in the fact that she is surrounded by her own long and elegant history. She is both present and historical at the same time. Every literary and artistic youth is eager to follow the footsteps of masters of art and wander with those great artistic souls in Paris. No matter what era, people are still nostalgic and miss those imaginary "golden ages". This is a kind of cultural homesickness. Therefore, we regret that we were born at the wrong time. We miss the contention of a hundred schools of thought in the pre-Qin Dynasty, the Kaiyuan and prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty, the enlightenment of the Renaissance, and the glory of science and technology of the industrial revolution... However, we have never lived in history, but just lived. In my own fantasy. In fact, each present has its own "golden age". Perhaps each of us is facing the past, retreating to the present, and into the future. Maybe the moment we are in is our own "golden age".
