18 Parisian Emoticons

Actually, I didn't know there were 20 arrondissements in Paris. I don't know what the houses or streets look like, and of course I don't know the people who live there. In fact, I know very little about Paris, but the Louvre Museum, the Eiffel Tower, the romantic capital, and the aroma of coffee on the banks of the Seine. But because of the pseudo-petty bourgeoisie and hypocrisy, I always regard Paris as a city that I must visit in my life. My heart is filled with many unverified fantasies because of desire.
So the stories that happened in the 20 arrondissements of Paris in the eyes of the 20 directors attracted me no matter what. What's more, the red-sleeved poster is like a touch of eroticism hidden in the heart, and it is easy to itch. It's just that 5 minutes is too short, and many stories are like fragments that end just after the beginning. But this is more like the temperament of Paris, with three points of presentation and seven points of reverie. The iceberg that has not surfaced makes the city feel unfinished.

So let's talk about these stories. Like the title of the romantic capital, many stories are related to love.
A middle-aged man who complained of a boring life, met a woman who fainted on the street in a traffic jam; a shy college student helped an Islamic girl who fell; even two beautiful boys met in a dye workshop. There are also some strange ghosts, a boy fell in love with a female vampire in the middle of the night. The old man selling hair dye and the eccentric Chinese woman in the salon. These loves are only the beginning, but you know, it must be a beautiful story. Because it happened in Paris.
There are also unfriendly descriptions of Paris. For example, the foreign tourist played by Steve Buscemi was beaten inexplicably by a couple in the subway station, and a half-old child was secretly shooting cold arrows. But even so, it still feels incredibly humorous. After all, this is a city full of possibilities.

But among so many episodes, I prefer these few stories that make people think a lot.
He wants to break up with his wife where he met her. Because for so many years, marriage has become a boring tasteless. He was tired of all the same things. He thought of his charming lover, of the new life that was about to unfold. There is so little excitement. But his wife took out a terminally ill diagnosis, and everything changed. He sympathized with people's breakup and devoted himself to staying by his wife's side. Do everything you can for her. Because he knew that no matter what it was, it would be the last time. Then he gradually found his love for his wife. This love is even deeper than before. At the end of the story, she had been dead for many years, but when he saw the woman in red on the street, he would still stop and stare back, as if he had seen her.

The monologue of a lonely middle-aged woman. She tours Paris alone. Eat delicious food and think about some of the past. She felt content, the city made her love. But when she was sitting by the river and eating a sandwich on a warm afternoon, she felt an indescribable emotion. She looked at the pair of people around her, and joy and sadness came to her heart. It turns out that no matter how beautiful the city is, it cannot replace even the faintest happiness.

Two funny clowns, before they met, they were alone. They work hard to spread joy and bury their frustration, but no one appreciates them. Finally, they meet in the prison of the police station, and a love affair happens. Their cute little son is carrying a big and exaggerated schoolbag. Even if he is bullied and pushed down by his classmates, he still gets up and smiles, because his parents told him that no matter what, if you face life with a smile, then life will smile at you. .

There are also many stories about how a mother who lost her son became strong; how a cleaner who fell in love with a black girl died in front of the girl by accident; the last dinner of an old couple who was about to divorce... Everyone in the story There are more or less connections, some are relatives, some have passed by on the street. They live in Paris. Sometimes happy, sometimes sad.
In fact, no matter how big or small a city is, you can never see what it looks like. Because different stories can give cities different expressions. And there are millions of people living in this city, and millions of stories are happening. Although some of the 18 stories are good-looking and some tasteless, they are all a style, filled with the same taste called Paris. So for me, a hypocritical Paris lover, it satisfies a fantasy, as if in just 100 minutes, I had really been in that longing city.

Paris, je t'aime quotes

  • Thomas: And you were accepted, of course. You moved from Boston to Paris into a little apartment on the rue du Faubourg-Saint-Denis. I showed you our neighborhood, my bars, my school. I introduced you to my friends, my parents. I listened to your texts, your singing, your hopes, your desires, your music. You listened to mine. My Italian, my German, a bit of Russian. I gave you a walkman. You gave me a pillow. And one day, you kissed me. Time went by, time flew and everything seemed so easy, so simple, so free, so new, so unique. We went to the movies, we went dancing, we went shopping, we laughed, you cried, we swam, we smoked, we shaved, you screamed; sometimes for no reason, or for a reason. Yes, sometimes for a reason. I brought you to the academy, I studied for my exams, I listened to your singing, to your hopes, your desires, your music. You listened to mine. We were close, so close, ever so close. We went to the movies, we swam, we laughed. You screamed, sometimes for a reason and sometimes without. Time went by, time flew. I brought you to the academy, I studied for my exams. You listened to my Italian, German, Russian, French. I studied for my exams. You screamed, sometimes for a reason. Time went by for no reason. You screamed for no reason. I studied for my exams, my exams, my exams. Time went by, you screamed, you screamed, you screamed. I went to the movies.
