Street scenes in Paris, German signs and flags, street signs in German, German soldiers on street, Grandstand at race track, German officers and soldiers, Arrival of Pierre Laval, former Vichy Government head who collaborated with the German's, he shakes hands with German officers, French soldiers out of freight car, wounded soldier helped onto stretcher, German officers at Arc de Triomphe.
Of course the color cameras never show it when victory is in the Germans hands. I can't find any colour motion pictures of Paris under the four years of German victory (occupation like Iraq but we call the partisans there insurgents right?). I suppose by using scratchy black and white film the french want to forget all about their Battle of France 1940 defeat. But the 1944 liberation is always in color. Without the help of the french their Jewish neighbors would have survived. Now it's Muslims.
