Nicholson Baker’s “The Fermata” without the sex. Set in 20s Paris. Lots of it shot atop the Eiffel Tower (and dangerously so) the city of Paris is “frozen” except for a small band of characters who go on a 4 day bender. Innovative and fun. And silent! Every now and then it is important to watch a good silent film to remind you what cinema is all about.
