"It's beautiful anyway! Federica, 44, Italian, but Parisian adoption, does not really believe his eyes to be there: at the foot of the Arc de Triomphe, on the "most beautiful avenue in the world", quietly installed in a deckchair, ice cream in hand, waiting for the film to begin …
Last night, at 7:30 pm, for the very first time, the Champs-Elysées hosted an outdoor cinema screening. An event imagined by the City of Paris and the National Film Center (CNC) to celebrate the first day of the 34th edition of the Film Festival, which will last another 3 days. The principle is always the same: all sessions available for four days for only 4 euros. And many events throughout France to enrich this offer.
The most prestigious: this giant screen of 180 m2 installed just in front of the Place de l'Etoile. In a very summery atmosphere, some 1,700 spectators were able to take their seats on the dozens of rows of lounge chairs on the pavement. To be one, it was necessary, on the Internet, to have voted for the film which would be diffused. "Les Visiteurs," Jean Poiré's 14 million-piece film, came in first, just ahead of "The Folly of Greatness," of some 16,000 voices.

Pbaders-by could also take advantage of it, provided they remained standing …
As the night slowly falls, the first ones laugh with the sounds of the "Dead-balls" of Count Godefroy. "Frankly it's great. It was very well organized, we even had bottles of water. We could see the screen very well. We should multiply this kind of projections "rejoiced Rene, 58, at the end of the film. And why not, indeed, start again in 2019? "The idea is really to share the magic of cinema, in a magical place, summarizes Frédérique Bredin, the president of the CNC. So yes, we hope to renew next year. With "The Visitors 2"?
