Eighteen short films about love of various kinds in Paris (and by extension, love for the city itself). Some are much quirkier than others but which you prefer is likely to be a matter of personal taste. Some are quite thort-provoking and none are juist tourist stauff. The shortness of the films (max 10 minutes, some less) keeps the pace up and even if you don't care for some segments, it's never boring.
C+ (Okay).

18 short films about love in Paris. A few are good, one or two are bad, most are just filling time in a very Film Student Exercise way. It's kind of impressive that any manage to be good, with only a few minutes to work with.

(May 2024)
OK, so the ending was entirely preposterous, but I enjoyed this film version of the first two Georgia Nicholson books.
Still a treat after 20 years. I took this disc out to review the added feature when Gurinder Chadha makes aloo gobi with her mother and aunt watching in restaurant kitchen in Soho. Not everyone know how to cook aloo gobi, contrary to the line voiced by the lead.
