Gerry,

It's the depth and something rather special about the non-staged shots. He 
does
capture an atmosphere that was genuinely there. Yes, there we do see through 
an
overtone of nostalgia, but parts of Paris really were like that. I remember
going there in '67 for the first time (I think);it was much like he depicts, 
and
thinking "is this what all the fuss is about?". Nonetheless...

France, let alone Paris, is a very different place today but if you know 
where
to look...
