Paris je t'aime - MAJOR SPOILERS for Elijah's segment

[ourdramaqueen]

bunniewabbit kindly pointed out these scans about Elijah's segment in Paris je t'aime - which contain MAJOR SPOILERS both in pictures and (French) text. Of course if you already read the spoiler I posted not too long ago, these scans will just be visual confirmation of that. omfg bring on September! *fans self*

For those interested, here's the translation of the parts in italics, which are outlining the segment. (The rest of the text is about the arrondissement itself.) My French is quite rusty, so corrections are welcome!

1 Rue de Madrid
It's night. David is walking under the bridge of the Rue du Rocher. He goes along Rue de Madrid, somber, dark and deserted, a bit scary, and begins to go up a staircase.

2 Rue du Rocher
He witnesses a murder withtout quite comprehending what is going on: A woman is standing over a corpse. It's a vampire who has feasted on blood: a strange tension develops between them.

3 Rue Portalis
David falls down the stairs and hurts himself. The vampire offers him her own blood. David is transformed and in an amorous impulse, he sinks his own teeth into the vampire's neck.


One bit of non-spoilery information I can give you is that Elijah's character is called David. And I do believe these scans are from a guidebook to the film locations, which seems to be available in France: paperback, hardcover.

For once, I'm happy to live in Paris! Saw Paris je t'aime friday, and it's very nice. Elijah's bit isn't among the best, unfortunately, although the ending really is kind of funny. The rest could be frame-by-frame copied out of LOTR, his expressions are so similar that I was more weirded out than intrigued.

My favourite was the third short film, some kind of gay bilingual love-at-first-sight thingy.

Eeeeeeeeh you saw it!!! Lucky indeed! I saw a review that singled out Elijah's segment as weak - I guess it's not much storywise compared to other segments. But Elijah as a vampire!!! *melts* How did he look, at the end?!

I don't know if it's storywise, but it lacks humor. The other segments were much funnier. It also doesn't really fit in, as the others describe more everyday happenings and don't have that fantastic element. But it was nice anyway.

Mostly he looked weirded out by his teeth. Actually, I don't remember much of him as a vampire. He was too busy biting the girl's neck ;)

Yes, I did think this segment must be the odd one out.

*weak whimper* I hope it will be in UK cinemas during the second half of September, as I'll be there on holiday then and the Swiss start date is the 21st!
