THE EIFFEL TOWER MOVIE TOUR

cinebalade_majestic_bandeau_edited.jpg

From the Trocadero gardens to the rue de Passy via the Bir-Hakeim bridge, the 16th arrondissement is a privileged filming district.

Sumptuous sets play hide-and-seek with the Eiffel Tower or the Seine and sometimes reveal a little more about the past of the hill transformed during the World's Fair which consecrated the cinema.

The Man from Rio, Fear of the City, La La Land, Inception, Mission Impossible 6, The Last Metro, and the latest, Eiffel, are on the list of must-sees. And as usual, some lesser-known films, shown as excerpts or photos, will make you know more about the Eiffel Tower and Passy in the movies.

Some opinions on this walk

"The Eiffel Tower makes its cinema" is an exciting guided tour. Juliette makes us discover the district from the angle of the many filmings that took place there: multiple anecdotes told with talent punctuate the visit! Thank you.

Very interesting film walk in the district of Chaillot, lots of anecdotes and information. Excellent idea at the end of discovering the Majestic Passy, with viewing of 35 mm films and a fascinating demonstration in the projection booth. Recommended!

- Sebastian

An elegant stroll in the footsteps of the filmmakers who were inspired by the book, We are on the Trocadero with Belmondo, then we are on the Bir Hakeim bridge with Léonard Di Caprio in Inception.
We live these breathless moments in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower ...

What a nice balance between a walk to discover the Eiffel Tower from all its angles through cult films and a more technical visit to the Majestic! And the icing on the cake: fascinating and passionate guides.

Pleasant and informative morning. Bravo for the film extracts shown "in situ", the snack at the Majestic and the screening in the cabin.
