Paris 1930s: Adrien Lamy - En parlant en peu de Paris, 1931
Adrien Lamy de Casino de Paris & Orchestra Pierre Chagnon – En parlant en peu de Paris (As We Talk On Paris) from the Film Operette “Il est charmant”(Willemetz – Moretti), Columbia 1931(French recording; pressed in Italy)
NOTE: Adrien Lamy was born in 1896 in Paris as Adrien Maurice Édouard Castarède. He was an actor, known for Le prince des Six Jours (1936), Chiqué (1930) and Le gros lot de Cornembuis (1935). He was also featured in Parisian music-halls, including Casino de Paris (one of his famous performances was that with Joséphine Baker in 1930, when he partnered on stage in her signature hit “J’ai deux Amours”). He died in 1940 in Orléans, France.
A Truly Boring Area of Paris, France
The whole neighborhood around the Bibliothèque Nationale is extremely nondescript and all new and could be anywhere. We consider it a failure. It has an impersonal feel. There is a swimming pool on a barge here, named for Josephine Baker, which looks whimsical and fun but other than that, this drive along the Seine is like sliced white bread.
I've been to a cineplex in this area which was full of attacks to buy junk but hey, you just say no. I saw people dating and treating their families and that is nice but I'd rather do what I did last night, which is take fresh fruit in a pocket or bag, my own water, beverage and candy and not spend any more than the movie price. I felt the price was high last night, eight euros, but it was a quirky old place and very comfortable and has a nice staff who were calmly eating their dinner. There was a huge waiting area and they left their office open so I barged in and snooped. I suppose eight euros was okay. It's Paris, my spouse said. I saw you can buy ten screenings for 45 euros, so if you really like movies, and we subscribe to two revival houses and also get discount tickets via our jobs for standard houses, that's attractive.
This part of Paris could be anywhere in the world. For that reason, we don't like it. Everything is new, modern and squared off. The library buildings are a failure. Bad, bad design.

Oh, we went to a new place this night. I mean, I had never been there. We saw a Mexican movie, REVES D'OR. I was pretty shocked, but it wasn't as bad as the last assault, THE SELFISH GIANT. I don't know why my husband does this to me. He also wants to see a Chinese movie he warns me is horribly tragic. Next, he'll be dragging me to another ossuary and I'll catch another bad cold. Phooey. Frenchie idiot.
Paris, France - Video Tour of the Bastille Neighborhood (Part 2)
Welcome to the 2nd of our 3 part series on the neighborhood of Bastille in Paris. If you missed our first episode, you can watch it on our YouTube channel:
If you head a little south-east past Gare de Lyon you'll reach the Bercy Stadium (boulevard de Bercy) , a large sports complex and concert venue. Covered by steps and diagonal slabs of grass, this is a favorite hang out for many skateboarders.
It's hard to miss the ultra-modern design of the Cinémathèque Francaise (51 rue de Bercy). In the Cinémathèque there is a cool museum on the history of cinema and a movie theater which host retrospectives on film legends, both past and present.
Continue walking through the gardens to the Cour Saint Emilion. Little known by tourists, the buildings of the Cour Saint Emilion were once warehouses for wine. The Cour Saint Emilion has been restored and converted into lively cafes and shops. At the end you'll find one of the largest movie complexes of Paris.
Of course, visiting Paris is great, but why not live like a local? Rent a furnished apartment or vacation rental from New York Habitat and live like a real Parisian for your next trip to Paris.
Consider this fully furnished 2-bedroom apartment located in Bastille ( ). This apartment features the convenience of a washer and dryer and a fully equipped kitchen including a dishwasher. The apartment features include an abundance of seating and a television with a DVD player, as well as the luxury of a private balcony.
Check out this furnished 3-bedroom Paris apartment in Bastille ( ) with one and a half bathrooms. The apartment features a long bay window that overlooks the courtyard, as well as 2 skylights. There is a working fireplace, comfortable seating and a washing machine in the apartment for convenient access to do laundry.
For all of you bookworms out there, cross the river to the west from the Cour Saint Emilion and you'll come to the massive Francois Mitterand Library, the National Library of France.
If you're in Paris in the summer, grab your swimsuit and head to the Piscine Joséphine Baker. It's a floating swimming pool just next to the François Mitterand Library.
Explore the Jardin des Plantes. This vast and charming botanic garden is the perfect place to stroll, sit back with a good book or find inspiration for your garden back home.
That wraps it up for this portion of our tour of the Bastille district. For further information on different Paris neighborhoods, don't miss out on our other videos and make sure you subscribe to our YouTube channel so you'll be notified when Part 3 is posted in the coming weeks.

Paris in the 1930's
The French economy boomed from 1921 until the Great Depression reached Paris in 1931. This period, called Les années folles or the Crazy Years, saw Paris reestablished as a capital of art, music, literature and cinema. The artistic ferment and low prices attracted writers and artists from around the world, including Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dali, Ernest Hemingway, James Joyce, and Josephine Baker.
Paris hosted the 1924 Olympic Games, major international expositions in 1925 and 1937, and the Colonial Exposition of 1931, all of which left a mark on Paris architecture and culture.
Pour un soir - 1931 - Jean Godard - Les Arcades du Lido - Paris
Dans cet extrait du film de Jean Godard intitulé Pour un soir, on découvre un lieu de la vie parisienne des années vingt et trente, qui se situe aux numéros 76-78 de l'avenue des Champs-Elysées. Les Arcades du Lido « une kermesse permanente de commerces de luxe » furent construites en 1925 par l'architecte Charles Lefebvre. Quelques colonnes en marbre, provenant de l'ancien hôtel Dufayel, sont utilisées dans la réalisation. La décoration de la galerie est l'œuvre du ferronnier René Gobert, des maîtres-verriers Fernand Jacopozzi et René Lalique, auteur de fontaines de verre, aujourd'hui disparues. Le sous-sol du passage abritait le Lido jusqu'en 1976. Inaugurés en 1928, il s'agissait à l'origine de salons de beauté avec une piscine mondaine conçus par l'architecte René Berger.
PARIS PASSARELLE
I'd been admiring this pedestrian bridge in Paris for quite some time. It connects the 12th and 13th arrondissements over the river Seine. One end is in Parc de Bercy, and there is also some access from the banks of the Seine via elevator I saw on the 12th side, and the other end is over by the Bibliothèque Nationale.
I like that Josephine Baker swimming pool on a huge permanently docked barge on the Seine. It always seems busy, but since this day was Easter Monday, it was closed. I could see Notre Dame de Paris in the distance. The locks on the bridge are illegal but it's a fad here these days. You seal a romantic relationship symbolically by doing that. They get cut off by the city on a regular basis but people still do it together.
It was a bit grey -- very typical for Paris.
Huge amount of noise from the traffic, but a nice bridge to walk across.

Tango de Paris: Ta voix - Nitta-Jo, 1930
Ta voix (Your Voice) Tango du film Cendrillon de Paris, Musique: Roger Dumas, Paroles: E.Recagno - Nitta-Jo de l'Empire, Accomp. d'Orchestre sous la dir. de Pierre Chagnon, Columbia 1930 (France)
NOTE: Nitta-Jo was a French singer & stage actress in 1920/30s, her real name was Jeanne Daflon. She was one of the most enigmatic French theatre artists of the 1st half of the 20th century. Born about 1890, she had her debut in Marseille. From late 1910s thru 1930s she appeared on records, where she had been announced as theatre artist of the Parisian scenes, such as Alhambra or l'Empire. That's all about her, what was available for me in the web. The whole rest is to be listened to on her records.

SparrowSpotting in the Yitzhak Rabin Gardens -- Parc de Bercy
I was early to see THE BIG KNIFE at the Cinémathèque Française in the Bercy sector of the 12th arrondissement of Paris, so I went looking for sparrows. (There are practically none anymore in Saint-Denis, where I live.) Bercy is among the oldest inhabited parts of Paris, dating back to 4000 B.C. An independent commune until only a century or so ago give or take half a century or so, it was a wine and spirits sales and storage place for a long, long time. It was put there to keep it all just outside Paris and higher taxation. Casks of wine, mostly from Burgundy, and wood from the Morvan region of Burgundy were big business here. Stored in chai, a type of wine and spirits warehouse, you can still see train tracks to facilitate the movement of the goods. This operated as the wine and spirits central until the 1960s.
The garden is named after Yitzhak Rabin, and the grape vines growing there are in hommage to the wine history of the place. Some of the old structures are still there, including the Maison du Jardinage, which has a potager pédagogique (to teach about kitchen-gardening) and many other activities. One of the métro stations here also uses some vestiges of warehouse structures.
This was on a somewhat grey Easter Monday (Easter is a holiday on Monday, not Sunday in France) and there were sprinkles of very light rain. The park is very large, and there is an unusual, modern pedestrian bridge with different levels and rises and dips in it adjacent, for passage across the Seine to the 13th arrondissement and the dreadful, badly designed new Bibliothèque Nationale. I made a clip of it so you can see the Josephine Baker swimming pool, on an enormous barge on the Seine, and some other things.
