"I recently picked up Jean Vigo's dreamy 1934 story of a honeymoon couple heading to Paris on a barge. It's still startling and would have been way out on its own in 1934. Also included on the Artificial Eye DVD is his earlier short Zéro de conduite which was banned for years in France. An anarchic tale of kids taking over a boarding school. You can see how much Truffaut picked up from here and it was a direct influence on the 60s Lindsay Anderson film If. Vigo died young and L'Atalante was his only complete feature."

"This is not only one of the funniest films ever made, but, as one who has spent time with a number of painters, I could see that it was really about painters and painting. And it was responsible for my first film—a short that ran for almost a year at the Paris Theater in New York. Of course, I’ll always love it. One of the lines I love is when the helper lady asks how you can tell when a picture is finished, and the painter hero looks at her quizzically and says, “You just know.” For me, that was movies."

After reading this for a second time I can now give a fair review.


This book is so unique in its plot. It takes us on a journey through Paris while weaving a tale of action, intrigue and romance. Natalie combines both fantasy and other famous fictional characters to enhance the story and I loved it :D

You come to like the characters and will them on in their journey of discovering who the bad guys are.

It is a really enjoyable read and I will be sure to re-read the second one now too :D
