Poetic Film Review: Paris qui dort (The Crazy Ray/At 3:25, 1924)

In Paris, a city frozen in time,
A watchman wakes to find a crime.
The streets are empty, the people still,
A strange phenomenon, a curious thrill.

A pilot and his passengers, the chosen few,
Unfrozen in Paris, a sight so new.
They revel in luxury, they steal and dine,
But soon realize, they're running out of time.

A mad scientist, a device to blame,
The only one who can undo the game.
With humor and wit, Clair tells the tale,
Of a city asleep, a post-apocalyptic trail.

Though silent and short, the film holds charm,
With panoramic shots and scenes so warm.
A debut for Clair, a future so bright,
A curious gem, a cinematic delight.

For fans of sci-fi, a treat to behold,
An interesting curiosity, a story so bold.
Paris qui dort, a film of its time,
A classic in its own right, a gem so prime.
