[bormandg]

On peut m'expliquer Midnight in Paris? Est-ce que, pour les anglais, Paris serait un pays mythique?
Je comprends Melancholia. Les autres je ne connais pas.

On peut m'expliquer Midnight in Paris?

Début du résumé sur wikipédia :

Gil parcourt la ville à la recherche de l'inspiration pour son prochain roman et, alors que les douze coups de minuit ont sonné, il est invité à monter dans une vieille voiture qui va l'emporter vers le Paris des années 1920. Au fil des nuits, il va alors rencontrer Zelda et F. Scott Fitzgerald, Cole Porter, Ernest Hemingway, Juan Belmonte, Gertrude Stein, Pablo Picasso, T. S. Eliot, Salvador Dalí, Luis Buñuel, Man Ray, Toulouse Lautrec, Henri Matisse…

C'est marrant, on dirait du Jack Finney.
JDB

PS : je sais : Toulouse-Lautrec est mort en 1901, mais ce résumé anticipe sur la 2e partie du film, où le héros continue de remonter dans le temps.
