even if you're stuck stateside, you can still indulge your french fantasies with a ticket to the film paris, je'taime. sure, you'd rather be walking along the seine, downing escargot and muscadet with some frenchman named jean-claude, and blowing your tax refund at colette, but the movie celebrates the different arrondissements of our favorite city with a love story set in each neighborhood.
eighteen short vignettes by renowned french, mexican, american, german, and even japanese directors, featuring a similarly international cast, bring you rue-level. our favorite bits were the hilarious scene where steve buscemi gets his arse kicked in the subway by a jealous boyfriend and the heartbreaking moment when a new paramedic fails to save the life of a man she just turned down for a cup of coffee.
if you can't book a seat on air france, try one in the back of a theater. preferably with a snuck-in bottle of champagne and a baguette. and, if you're lucky, a guy named jean-claude.
