In 1933 Brassaï published one of the greatest of all photo-books with the title Paris de Nuit . These Parisian postcards from a series published by Yvon (Féeries Nocturnes de Paris) are contemporary with Brassaï’s book. The image above shows Métro line 2 on its elevated trajectory overshadowed by the oppressive profile of Sacré-Coeur, a standing reproof to communards...

On several occasions I met Dalí. He was pretty unpleasant; not directly unpleasant – he wasn’t nasty. He was a major artist, but I felt he lacked integrity. I was there once and during the course of the evening we were given some horrible sweet sparkling wine which was palmed off as champagne. I met his wife Gala once as well when we first made contact, although they didn’t...

Not the most exciting photograph in the world but I want to show you Menton's Boules Club which is now no more. You see the actual boules courts (if that is the word) in the small photo - in process of being churned up by a mechanical digger. Why? Well, in 2005 the city of Menton accepted the prestigious Severin Wunderman Collection, consisting of 1525 works by Jean Cocteau. Mr. Wunderman chose Menton...

The impending existence of the film Beastly, a modern and teen-centric version of Beauty and the Beast, had escaped me until now. But with the power of the teen dollar once again having been reasserted over the weekend, it's time to get the promotions cranking for films that might siphon off a bit of that cashflow. And so here's a brief teaser for Beastly. Be afraid. Be very afraid. The teaser is available...

Seeing a great film for the first time is an intoxicating, inspiring event. Especially if it’s one that you’ve known about for years, seen stills of incredible images reproduced in books, read about, etc. This is the case with me and Jean Cocteau’s masterpiece Orpheus. I happened to catch the second half of it on [...]

The pair of angels in Wim Wenders’ Wings of Desire have been here forever--before Berlin and before the living. They spend their days observing the people of the divided city, reading their thoughts and instilling a sense of optimism where need be. They behave as one would expect angels to (providing, of course, one believes): as a guardian who, with just his palm, can provide sanguinity in the...

Pretty much everything that was considered cool, experimental or groundbreaking in art, film, theater and music in the 20th century can be traced back in one way or another to the Dada group, formed by Tristan Tzara, Hugo Ball, Jean Arp and Marcel Janco, amongst other notables. It all started at the Cabaret Volatire in Zurich, but Dada found its true circulatory center in post-war Paris where the...

Dita Von Teese is learning French. The burlesque dancer is taking lessons in the language so she can converse with her boyfriend, French aristocrat Count Louis-Marie de Castelbajac, in his native tongue. She wrote on her Twitter page: "Why oh why didn't I pay more attention in high school French?? Yes, now it really DOES seem like 20 years ago." Dita's love of all things from France has extended...

I wish I could get going earlier in the mornings. With the sun going down at about 5.30pm, I've wasted much of the daylight hours pissing around in the apartment. Yet again I only made it to the bus station by 11am. This time I decided to visit Menton, which is a shorter trip than the one to Cannes. I sat on the correct (shaded) side of the bus. I had my Creative Zen to ward off the wittering Irish...

"Words have a magical power," says Kate Daudy, sitting in her kitchen, surrounded by the multicoloured swirls of poems that she has appliquéd across the walls. "If I walk down [west London's] Harrow Road and there's a great big poem by Lorca written down my back, the person on the bus who sees me might have a happy afternoon."
