What to Watch Before Visiting Paris

Planning a trip to Paris and looking for something to watch before you go? Perhaps it is your first trip and you’re lost in a sea of recommendations, pictures, suggestions, and a bit of your own fantasies. Or perhaps you’ve been before and are looking forward to getting lost while strolling the charming streets once again. Regardless, here is a list of movies and television shows to get you inspired for your upcoming trip (even if you haven’t booked it yet and/or have no immediate plans to visit). 

This list predominantly focuses on films and TV shows set in Paris vs. all of France. If you’re looking for a more general list of films and TV shows to watch that take place in France, check out this list.

You will find this list is mostly English-language films, though a few sub-titled staples are included.

Without further ado... a list of recommendations for films and TV shows - in no particular order - to watch when planning (or dreaming of) a trip to Paris.
