Synopsis
One sunny summer Sunday afternoon, an aspiring young filmmaker named Marcel Carné takes on a stroll along the banks of the River Marne.  What we see are impressions from another world, that happy time before the Second World War and a slew of technological advances that would change this setting forever.  How beautiful the world is, how happy and carefree everyone seems.  The men are impeccably dressed in dark suits.  The women all wear implausibly large hats.  Their smiles reflect the summer warmth and an eternal gratitude for the miracle of creation.  It is a vision of paradise that Carné would never show us again...
