Just ordered the new Bluray set of #Napoleon.
This would be the newest French restoration.
Out in various versions, one being a 5-disc collectors edition which also includes a book of some sort.
Hope it is another book than the one I got at the Paris screening.

Hotel room.

The interior design is something else.

The wall object is 1x2 mtr in size.
It is not flat and those little bits are indeed reflective.
Besides this, there are 4 more mirrors (some floor-ceiling).
None on the ceiling itself thank goodness.

The half eaten bagle on the left is mine.

So I am in a train to Cologne and very inclined to stream a good solo version of the #HansZimmer classic
#ChevalierDuSangreal.

Very loud. 😂

When your hard drive goes Burp and wipes out 240 files of your Silent film collection.
Sounds familiar? 😞
