Official Video for Adele's 'Someone Like You'

The lip syncing is a bit lazy but the simplicity of the video is great in my opinion. Although I think the video should have been shot in London instead of Paris since Adele is very patriotic about her hometown!

For Those Stay At Home Days.

I love most things French. The language, the country, the culture and the history. I'm also a huge fan of French cinema, and right now my top French films are:

Bon Voyage (2003)

Directed by academy award winning director, Jean-Paul Rappenau, the film takes place in 1940 in Paris. It tells the story of several people (an actress, politician, scientist and a writer) whose lives intertwine as they flee the Nazi take-over.



La Vie En Rose (2007)

Two-time academy award winning film and the winner of 4 BAFTA awards, La Vie En Rose chronicles the life of the legendary French singer, Edith Piaf. It stars Marion Cotillard who won both the Oscar and BAFTA awards for best actress.
