The Flight of the Red Balloon - Trailer

[thecronicle95]

I loved albert lamorisse's movie. i am not a very fan of this version.

[Codemaster92163]

And, of course "Suddenly, dark clouds hover over Adlehyde.

The laughter and murmur cease.

As the unsuspecting people look up to the skies,

they watch the silent nightmare spread over their heads."

If anyone even knows what I'm referencing, I love you :3

This movie by all sense has terrible. I can't believe I sit and watched the whole thing. It was so boring and nothing like the original. What a waste of two hours!!

[along957]

Hou Hsiao-Hsien rules!

[Connie0755]

the original film, shot in 1956, is so much stronger without dialogues...

this one isn't at all "parisian"...

[22poeg]

@Connie0755

Well, (dud) think about it -- what you see is the problem with the movie IS the point the movie is making. Today, the glorious part of Paris shown in the 1956 film doesn't exist. It's been replaced by American inspired buildings - the Americanization of Old Europe is now almost complete. J. Tatti makes the same point in his 1956 classic film, 'Mon Oncle.'

[KeepOnTrollin001]

OMG Watching this movie was the best 2 hours of my life ;D I even watched it for free on

*** Movies Ace . C0m ***

[sweetberrys94]

I watched the older version of it and both movies actually suck 'cause...a regular french boy and a red balloon whats the point?

[alixgaul]

you idiot can't see the symbolism behind it... you'd kill the red baloon...

[hotarunohaka]

@sweetberrys94 maybe the poetry ?

C'est clair la version originale, y a pas mieux.

[lttlman2013]

i liked the original(1950s) a lot more

[Connie0755]

@lttlman2013

absolutely, couldn't agree more... the original film was shot in 1956, and it gives you the real sense of Paris at the time, which isn't at all the case with this "foreign" film where I don't recognize the Paris I know and live in.

[SKATEWAYPRODUCTIONS]

Can anyone tell me the name of this song?

I would appreciate it allot

[albertatreelawny]

me too! apparently its by a chinese composer but thats all i know.

[SummerWithMusic]

Visually stunning! :)

[frannyfine]

does anyone know the name of the song playing??? and who it is by?

[hotarunohaka]

@frannyfine the music is performed by CAMILLE, a french artist woman, and the title is TCHIN TCHIN.

ezliy findable on youtube.

[maat1013]

I agree with Casey...when you have been to Paris, you will appreciate both movies. Not seen this one yet, but I am curious. Remember all, the original was made in 1956...loads has changed since then.

[marifnickj]

montse come caca

[Montorrat]

you know what ana suck it bucker

[Micklol]

one question: DID YOU WATCH THE MOVIE?

[jyoung78]

It's not so much a re-make as a re-interpretation.

[meshowz]

if i saw that Balloon i would blow it ..fin

[xxinvadergazxx]

*cough*

I saw the original Red Balloon by Albert Lamorisse. I loved it.

I haven't seen this movie, it may be good, but I sure hope it doesn't wreck the original for me.

[EvilConduct88]

I agree, but what do you want to bet this remake isn't nearly as good as the original?

[etteilujelleon]

what is the name of the music in this trailer?

[4everforever]

it is a chinese song orginally

[joanagege]

i saw this movie today and it was a waste of my time i love independent movies or indie movies but this one was a waste

[CaseyRyback29]

Open up your mind!

Travel to Paris,then you will understand...

[AnnoyingLittleShit]

I've been to Paris!

I'm French (don't live there though)

And true, this movie DID make me miss paris, I'll admit

BUT it was the shittest, most boring movie I've ever seen

ps, who sings that chin chin song?

[brittany0]

I want to see this movie so bad, I love movies about life but not reality TV sort of movies. It seems so lovely from the trailer. Thanks for posting!!

[condiersea]

@brittany0 i saw the original in my french class but this one is playing on the sundance channel tomorrow at around 8pm (in Chicago tome zone)

[ThatGuyAtTheBar]

i was wondering the same thing.
