Since the elections of the 8th February, the advent of the reactionists, the nomination of M. Thiers, the patched-up and shameful peace, the monarchy in prospect, the defiances and the defeats were as bitterly resented by the valiant town of Marseilles as by Paris.
Gaston Cremieux said to them in an address, ‘You will remember when the time comes, the fraternal hand that we have held out to you.’ He was a mild enthusiast, who beheld the revolution under rather a bucolic aspect.
On the 28th, when Paris was still elated with victory, all the Communes of France were already swept away save those of Marseilles and Narbonne.

René Clair's Under the Roofs of Paris is a delightful pastiche of vignettes loosely held together by a creaky plot involving theft, romance, and mistaken identity.
An international sensation upon its release, Under the Roofs of Paris is an exhilarating celebration of filmmaking and one of France's most beloved cinematic exports.
Also on this DVD is Clair's first film "Paris Sleeps" a 20 minute short that at first is quite funny but then goes on a bit too long.

La thèse attendue de Vincent Duclert permettra d'ailleurs de savoir si Gaston Paris et Emile Duclaux ont incarné des attitudes isolées ou non et de mieux comprendre les relations entre engagement savant et engagement intellectuel.
Si l'attitude du savant ressort très nettement dans les réflexions personnelles de Gaston Paris sur le comportement des "experts" cités par l'état-major et les tribunaux, on regrettera que l'auteur n'ait pas poussé plus loin l'analyse du milieu libéral entourant G. Paris à l'Académie ou au Collège de France.
Peut-être de nombreux documents annexes consultés par l'auteur auraient-ils permis de comprendre la cohérence entre l'absence de prise de position de Gaston Paris, et celle de certains de ses amis comme Emile Boutmy et Sully-Prudhomme et de proposer une analyse socio-culturelle d'un milieu encore peu connu.
