The Draw: A love letter to Montmartre, Paris' art/bohemian district, as told through the eyes of one of cinema's most bewitching ingénues.

The Fact: Yes, the views from the top of Sacré-Coeur really are that spectacular — even without Jean-Pierre Jeunet's ambitious color correction.

The Fiction: The new owners of Café des Deux Moulins have done some remodeling. So you can still dig into crème brûlée, but don't plan on buying a packet of smokes on the way out.

The Draw: Alex (Romain Duris) is a nice guy with a dirty job — breaking up unhappy relationships. His mission: Accompany Juliette (Vanessa Paradis) to Monaco and prevent her from marrying her English boyfriend.

The Fact: Here's hoping Alex is paid well for his work. A noted tax haven, the cost of living in Monaco is not for the faint of heart.

The Fiction: In one of the world's most beautiful principalities, who takes that long to fall in love with Romain Duris?

The Draw: Two pathologically shy chocolate makers fall in love. Can they keep it together and launch a new product line?

The Fact: France is a chocoholic mecca. (Names of note: Abanico, Valrhona, Richart.)

The Fiction: Belgium would dispute the superiority of French chocolate.
