La Pagode

La Pagode, the movie theater at the corner of Rue Babylone and Rue Monsieur, is in a perpetual state of disrepair and the art-house films it shows don't always live up to their promise. But it's still great fun to go there, and when the garden is open, as it was last night, it's a very special corner of Paris.
