Cemetary-Cinematheque

Today I met Priya and Carla at the Pere Lachaise stop in the 20th arrodissement. While waiting for Katie and Andy, we ate at a cafe on the opposite corner of the cemetary. I had a tartine and a salad.

When our group was together, we walked in the rain to the cemetary. A bleary, dreary day- perfect for what we were doing.

After the cemetary (it closed at 6) we took the train to the 12th arrondissement to go to the cinematheque. It was designed by the same guy who designed the Disney Hall, said Andy. We ended up picking a Lubitsch film called That Uncertain Feeling (1941). I thought it was so, so cute and well done. I also spied a lot of similarities in other contemporary films I've seen, that I'm pretty sure drew their influences from this film. I will be back at that theater a lot, considering they're show some of the most amazing films ever made.

Andy and Carla went home, and Priya and I grabbed some food. I had an omelette and Priya had a crepe. On the way home we got on the wrong train and it froze again in the subway station while I was telling Priya about when it happened the day before. I had a panic attack again. That sucked. But it was fleeting and the train started moving again shortly after and I was fine.

Man my heart is exhausted.
