Anecdotes
Writer Caroline Bongrand came with the idea of mixing the building of the Eiffel Tower with a forbidden love story off the top of her head during a pitch session with a producer in Los Angeles without knowing at this time if it had any basis in reality. It was only after the deal with the producer was signed that she browsed through biographies of Gustave Eiffel and discovered that her inventions were almost all true.

Gaffes
When Gustave and Adrienne kiss on the first floor of the tower being constructed, the sun is shown as setting to the right of the then-palace on top of Trocadero Hill, i.e. to the North-North-West of Paris, when it should rather be to the South-West.

A triumph

I was lucky enough to see this film in Sydney for the French Film Festival. It captures not only a wonderful engineering feat, but also the thrilling life and times of the Eiffel Tower's creator. A man who was unrelenting in his desire to create a legacy, regardless of the pressure on him.

I can only hope that this film gets a cinematic release that it deserves in Europe and elsewhere.
