<\/center><\/p>\nI watched Paris, Je T’aime<\/i> a few weeks back and absolutely adored it. It’s a compilation of 20 5-minute films set in each of the 20 neighborhoods (arrondissements) of Paris. Each film is directed by a different filmmaker and tells a tale of love and life in the city of lights. My personal favorite is Quais de Seine<\/i>, which is directed by Gurinder Chadha (Bend It Like Beckham<\/i>). It’s about a young man hanging out with his 2 friends who try to (unsuccessfully) pick up on women as they walk by. When a Muslim girl trips and others laugh at her expense, he goes to help her and they strike up a conversation. I love it because their connection is so organic and natural.<\/p>\n
I also love the mini-films Le Marais, Bastille, Parc Monceau, P\u00e8re-Lachaise, Faubourg Saint-Denis<\/i>… a good summary article about the project can be found here<\/a> on Wikipedia. Highly recommended. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n Mmmm. I adore Paris. I think my trip with Rob last year kick-started the obsession. I jokingly (or maybe not so) told him that I would LOVE to celebrate my 30th birthday there. That would be awesome<\/i>.<\/p>\n Hey, a girl can dream.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I watched Paris, Je T’aime a few weeks back and absolutely adored it.
