#Paris #EiffelTower #TourEiffel

Et ensuite, avec le #LePetit, la Tour Eiffel, seulement jusqu’au deuxième étage puisque on ne s’y est pas pris en avance.

Mythologie des origines : exemple des CPA créées lors de l'exposition universelle de 1889, avec toute une série d'objets souvenirs pour commémorer l'ascension de la #TourEiffel, dont des CPA.

Entente dès cette époque entre les industriels pour lancer de nouvelles pratiques de correspondance, avec une stratégie marketing en amont et, en 1889, la gestion exclusive par Neurdein (photographes puis éditeurs de CPA).

#Bales2023FilmChallenge March 31, again: The #EiffelTower in a #movie for #EiffelTowerDay

#SciFi may be one of those genres that's forever linked to the future and, depending on which side of 2000 you are at, either in a dystopian of utopian fashion. In 1925, René Clair released Paris qui dort. An #Eiffel Tower watchman wakes up to find the world around him asleep. The few ones still awake – the bright, pretty, carefree things – explore, live and loot.

#Bales2023FilmChallenge March 31: Spot the #Eiffel Tower on #EiffelTowerDay

Never was or will I be a fan of Jacques #Tati, the loveable Luddite who wouldn't be as big as he became if it wasn't for the technological wonders of the 20th century. Having said that, his #Playtime (1967) holds a special place in my heart. Tati's alter ego Monsieur #Hulot roams a hyper-modern #Paris, actually an enormous soundstage dubbed #Tativille. People, buildings and gadgets interact with and against each other, each and everyone as plotless as a prop. In unison, it becomes a perfectly orchestrated symphony of maddening modernism. But Tati wouldn't be Tati if it wasn't for a glimpse of quiet nostalgia. A woman holding the glass-and-steel entrance door of yet another concrete office building. In the glass, a burst of warm light and colour and movement. And then it's gone, and we remember how that tower once was the thorn in the Luddite's eye, that “baroque and mercantile fancy of a builder of machines”.
