Les Enfants du Paradis 1944 France

Rightly rated as one of the greatest French films of all time and consistently voted so by critics of that country.  Love and longing in the world of 19th Century Paris theatre.   A  beautifully observed tale of reality and fantasy , of theatrical illusion  and personal tradgedy and all filmed against the very real backdrop of the Nazi occupation.  Three hours of classic film making.
