Vive la France!: How to Celebrate Bastille Day the Trés Brooklyn Way
Before Midnight
Alright, so Before Midnight doesn’t take place in France, and it isn’t made by a French director, but it does star Julie Delpy, who also co-wrote the film. And it’s an aching and beautiful and honest portrayal of a relationship, which seems like a more French way of looking at long-term love, doesn’t it? Plus, Julie Delpy has one of the best topless scenes that’s ever been on film, because of how natural and lacking inhibition it seems, which is just what nudity is like between people who have been together for years. And, also, it’s further proof of what I said before, namely, France= Boobs.
