God Chose Paris (1969)

NR | Sep 05, 1969 (FR) | Drama | 01:36

This is NOT a documentary. It’s much more.

An interesting mixture of filmed scenes with Belmondo and archival footage regarding cultural aspects of all kind around Paris, starting at the end of the 19th century and ending in the mid-1960's. Jean-Paul Belmondo leads us through the movie starting as a young photographer around 1900, a reporter in both world-wars and doing fictional interviews with lots of celebrities.
