French Canadian here, unlike all of you i can watch them all in original version ^^.

Si les films français vous intéressent, alors vous ne verrez sûrement pas d'inconvénient au fait que je continus ce message en français ?
La majorité des films Parisiens sont des films d'amour à l'eau de rose.. je vous conseille plutôt d'élargir vos intérêts pour tout ce qui est français et belge. :)

Those are not really "about" Paris... but i can guarantee you that you will like some of them...

La Môme (La Vie en Rose)
http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/1407-la ... anguage=fr

Un indien dans la ville (Little Indian, Big City)
http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/11479-u ... anguage=fr

Le Dîner De Cons (The Dinner Game)
http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/9421-le ... anguage=fr

Mesrine : L'Ennemi public n°1 (Mesrine: Public Enemy #1)
http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/15362-m ... anguage=fr

Mesrine : L'Instinct de mort (Mesrine: Killer Instinct)
http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/13635-m ... anguage=fr

My Ultimate Belgian Classic:
C'est Arrivé Près De Chez Vous (Man Bites Dog)
http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/10086-c ... anguage=fr

I trully hope that nobody will watch those movie translated in english... best way to ruin them :(
Original + Subtitles... that's the way to do.. ;) I don't watch translated movies... a muppets show if you ask me. ^^
