The Red Balloon (Le Ballon Rouge) 1956



What an absolutely adorable movie!  I originally saw this movie when I was still in public school (in the seventies) and I watched it again recently - it has lost none of its magic. For me, the innocence of the boy and his new friend (the red balloon) make it well worth watching. (The clothes, the streets and the cars don't hurt either!) Even though it was probably originally intended to be seen by children, it's equally as enjoyable as an adult.
Oh to be in Paris during that time!!
