A great film of Julien Duvivier.
21 January 2020
For one day we shall follow the lifes of very different persons: a young woman looking for love,an old lady taking care of cats, workers in strike, a sculptor ,a student of medicine,a policeman and by magic all their lives will be connected.A wonderful description of Paris, of its people made with poetry. The actors and actresses were really excellent: Brigitte Aubert (Denise Lambert) Sylvie (Mademoiselle Perrier), Daniel Ivernel (Georges Forestier), Paul Frankeur (Milou) Marie-France (La petite Colett Malingret) and François Périer (Narrator). Also "Sous le ciel de Paris" is a masterpiece of photography,The cinematographer Nicolas Hayer was also the cinematographer of "Le Corbeau" (1943). Another important point: "Sous le ciel de Paris" is a tale narrated with tenderness and humour by François Périer. Finally there is one song: "Sous le ciel de Paris",music by Hubert Giraud,lyrics of Jean Dréjac and sung by Jean Bretonnière: very great and famous French singer have sung once this nice song (Yves Montand,Juliette Gréco, Édith Piaf, etc).
