of visual interest

I always find it interesting to see the difference in how different cultures view or treat the same thing. The difference between the French and English trailers for a particular movie, for example. (The German ad spot for The Sentinel was radically different from the American ads I've seen, as another example.)

Anyway: the film RENAISSANCE is an interesting little thing. It's set in Paris 2054, which immediately gets my attention. It appears to be a mystery, where a detective is tracking down an abducted woman in a surreal, animated BLACK AND WHITE city. We are not talking grayscale.

Check out the original French trailer, and/or the dubbed English trailer.

Other visually interesting things:

Auroras in Nebraska.

A really pretty storm.

Apparently she's been kidnapped by a geneticist who has an insta-forest in his apartment? One reviewer said of the movie to try to ignore the screenplay, as it's the worst part. :3 Which is about how I felt about The Matrix.
