Description

Before this film no one else, including the French was ever permitted to film the Louvre. The priceless treasures and incomparable art can be shared through the eyes of award-winning filmmaker Lucy Jarvis. Set against the panoramic history of France, and hosted by Charles Boyer, The Louvre, regal palace and home to so many of the world's great gifts of art, becomes THE LOUVRE, a film acclaimed and winner of fourteen national and international awards, so rich in its story that even the Mona Lisa smiles.

    • Beautifully filmed, packed with information of great interest and ...
Fabulous documentary of a legendary historical masterpiece fittingly narrated by Charles Boyer, the suave, debonair actor with the silken voice. Beautifully filmed, packed with information of great interest and with only one small error in reference to the painting of Napoleon and Josephine's coronation, mistakenly referred to as Napoleon and Marie Louise's coronation. I have watched it time and again. Highly recommend it. ... show more

    • Fantastic documentary!
This is a loving tribute to the Louvre narrated with enthusiasm and pride by French actor Charles Boyer. The museum turns out to have just as wonderful and amazing a history as any of the great works of art it houses. I first saw this way back in high school and it left such an impression on me that more than 30 years later I still remember many parts of it. One of the most interesting story telling devices are the models used to show how the Louvre grew, expanded, and changed over the course of time. All the major historic figures of France seem to have been involved with this great monument over its life and their lives are inevitably intertwined in a great historic narrative. The Louvre has such a fantastic story of its own that you could not have made up anything more exciting and unbelievable if you tried. Watch this and you will spend more time marveling at the structure than the Mona Lisa. Follow this up by watching The Monuments Men. In The Louvre you find out what the French did to preserve all the great works in the museum. The Monuments Men is another great story about other great art works protected from the Nazi. ... show more

    • Louvre Is Well Worth Watching
This remake of the original NBC program was very well done. Charles Boyer is worth the price of admission!

    • A PARISIAN TREASURE
THIS IS THE MOST INTERESTING VIDEO I HAVE EVER OWNED. I CAN'T TELL HOW MANY TIMES OVER SEVERAL YEARS I HAVE WATCHED IT. IT GIVES NOT ONLY A WONDERFUL GLIMPSE OF THE ART, BUT ALSO GIVES A HISTORY OF THE BUILDING. HAVING WATCHED THIS VIDEO GAVE ME A MUCH MORE REWARDING EXPERIENCE OF THE BUILDING WHEN I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO VISIT IT. ... show more

    • Three cheers and six stars
An all-time favorite. My original copies wore out from re-run use. A great look at the history of a great building that never gets bogged down in an academic discussion of the art or architecture. One personal delight is Mr. Boyer showing a series of maps of Paris with the Louvre in the center, and going back and back before the building existed. I like to run that sequence back and forth just for the amusement of watching the changes to the city. The photography and sound are both excellent, the script is wonderful, and Mr. Boyer is at his best as a voice actor. The edited final product is a masterwork of the documentary form. Six stars. ... show more

    • Great history! Grainy video.
This movie was produced for television in 1964 so the images are very grainy. It has a good story and great history, but lacks the image quality you need to really see those treasures. It was filmed at a time when the stone on the Louvre exterior had not been cleaned. In 1972 and 1975 and 1996 and 2006 and 2017 the Louvre looked much cleaner. Some of the paintings it showed were not in the Louvre when I saw them. The Impressionists were in the Jeu de Paume and Whistler's Mother was in the Musée d'Orsay. I would love to see this same script redone with today's video technology!! ... show more

As I'am a frankophile and having read several books on the Louver in Frenceh and English the program was found to beis very informative of the history of the Louvre.
