Children of Paradise

WEEK 5- Benoit S.

Actually in theater, an exhibition and a retrospective of Marcel Carné… October is the month of the Children of Paradise in “La cinémathèque française”. Thanks to the donation of Marcel Carné’s daughter who gives the original script of this movie and other precious document as photography or letter. It’s the origin of a major exhibition and the occasion to see this mythic movie… one more time…




This movie is about love.

In Paris in the 19th century, Garance a young poor woman meets Baptiste Debureau who is a theater mime at the Boulevard du crime a well known street in France which was a kind of artistical center in Paris at the end of the century. Garance is also loved by three other men: Frederick who is a young actor who is craving for fame, Lacenaire who is a gangster and the count Eduard of Monteray who can give her all she wants for living… Between love and hate, fear and joy, happiness and sorrow, do Baptiste and Garance will find their truly love together? 

This movie directed by Marcel Carné and written by Jacques Prévert was produced in 1945. It is actually projected in theater in Paris and other cities in France (not Bordeaux unfortunately).
The exhibition is about this movie and its production in the “Cinémathèque Francaise” which shows all the artistical process of this story, the reality and the myth, the mistakes made by doing a movie during the Second World war…
Save the date! 

From 24 october 2012 to 27 january 2013.
