Free youtube movie of the day: A propos de Nice

A propos de Nice (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0021576/) is a silent film directed in 1930 by the -25 year old then –French director Jean Vigo.
In the short duration of the film, Vigo captures with surrealism and humor the Borzois and tourists walking around Nice, France displaying their dresses and moving endlessly, so that they can emphasize their existence. Amazing are the scenes, showing the contradiction between the dancers and the statues. The instant opposite the eternal.
I would suggest watching it in mute in the link below.
