You are known for your crepes, your history with art, architecture and music. I always dreamt of traveling to France and it came true this past summer. Stepping outside the train and reading everything in French was a culture shock. We stayed in Paris and I fell in love with the city. Everywhere I look I saw beauty, love, and romance. I can't explain it but I was struck with love. The people, the scenery, oh and the food. Je te desire! I felt sophisticated and artsy. In a way it inspired me to continue my interest in film and traveling. Now I want to learn more about art, architecture and photography. Merci Beaucoup.

A review of the Red Balloon by The New York Times.
The movie that I selected was the Red Balloon directed by Albert Lamorisse. Monsieur Lamorisse was known because of his short films and documentaries. Sadly he passed away while filming one of his documentaries. He was won Oscars and other awards for his films. This particular one was the that opened the door to film making. His son played the part of the little boy. This film is about a relationship between a boy and a balloon. Instead of befriending a dog or cat the boy connects with this red abandoned balloon.
