Paris is for the nostalgic

PARIS IS A NOSTALGIC PLACE for many; sometimes I feel like the world keeps moving around it, but the architecture, the cuisine, the fashion, and other cultural aspects, remain classic. I think this video, produced by Maison Carnot, captures that sense of nostalgia perfectly. The old-fashioned Pentax camera (I’m not sure whether it was used as a prop with a video overlay, or if it was actually filmed with a second camera looking down at the viewfinder the entire time) was a unique way to display select scenes of Parisian life, but I think it would have been cool to see some more diversity represented. Regardless, this video definitely has me longing for a trip back to France.
