The Red Ballon is one of my most vivid childhood memories. My mom played it for her class on a reel-to-reel projector. Stumbled across Furore's issue dedicated to the film and was amazed to discover that many scenes were filmed in my neighborhood. . . Furore #21, Piet Schreuders (Summer 2012) . . The Red Balloon (1956), a short film by Albert Lamorisse, has captivated millions of hearts for decades. In this lavish 100-page publication we describe the film scene-by-scene and reveal the movie’s filming locations scattered all over Paris. Detailed maps provide a guide to where Pascal found the balloon, to his house, the bakery, the school yard, the bus route, the junk market and the church. It even maps the network of alleyways used for the chase sequence. . .
