Preview: Paris (2009)

Synopsis:

A professional dancer waiting for a heart transplant explores himself and the world around him as he watches the people of Paris pass by his balcony.

• Poster: C+

Review:

I can't say that I object to these minimalist posters much. Although they aren't masterworks of the medium and are difficult tools to sell their respective films, you can't help but admire them.

• Trailer: B

Review:

We've seen many films about people watching others' lives while their own passes by them, so the territory in the trailer is familiar, though not entirely unwelcome.

Oscar Prospects:

I don't see this as the kind of film the French board would select to send to the Oscars, which means it is unlikely to be recognized there.

Release Date:

• September 18, 2009
