192021
192021.org is a project of Richard Saul Wurman, founder of TED Conference. The objective is to analyse 19 cities with a population over 20 million people in the 21st century, and logically it is called "192021". Since the project is still at the nascent stage, there is not much information available yet. Although, future findings might be interesting.

Le voyage dans la lune / 1902
"A trip to the moon" is the first science movie ever made and it was mainly inspired by "From the Earth to the Moon" of Jules Verne.
This short movie was released in 1902 by Georges Méliès, who was a French magician in a first place but then became a filmmaker after being inspired by les Frères Lumières. Monsieur Méliès passed away in 1938 in Paris and has a filmography made of more than 30 movies. He is definitely considered as a pioneer of the cinema and its works worth having a look.

Mr Neutra passed away in 1970 and he is still considered as one of the most important modern architect. The specific Neutra's masterpiece is a bunch of harmony, efficiency, modern design and history.

It might exists many different things that make you think about France and its culture, such as art and/or wine, but there is nothing like Josephine Baker and Charles Trenet's songs that undeniably make you travel in time and feel the atmosphere of the old Paris. The two following songs represent all the feelings and thoughts that you would stereotypically associate with France and, especially Paris of 30-40s (Pre-WWII).
