Among the featured recommendations is Viva Maria!, the classic movie directed by Louis Malle and starring Brigitte Bardot and Jeanne Moreau. Beyond its adventurous storyline, the film is remembered for making aviation history in 1966 when it became the first movie ever screened on a commercial flight operated by Air France between Paris and New York.
The airline also highlighted more recent Cannes-acclaimed productions such as Anatomy of a Fall by Justine Triet, winner of the Palme d’Or; Perfect Days by Wim Wenders; and Sentimental Value by Joachim Trier, which recently gained international recognition. These titles are part of the cultural and cinematic offering available to passengers traveling on the airline’s intercontinental routes.
