Live Poll: Scenes on the Seine
The 2024 Olympic Games are taking place in Paris, who becomes the second city in the world to celebrate the event for the third time in history.
Paris goal was to focus on sustainability, and instead of building new an expensive stadiums, they used existing venues and Parisian landmarks to host the sporting events.
Of special interest was the project to use the Seine river for the Marathon Swimming and the Triathlon events, as well as for the opening ceremony. All these required an investment of 1.4 billion dollars to clean the river to make its waters safe for the athletes. and leaving a clean river as a legacy so people can legally swim in tis waters for the first time since 1923.
The Seine will be an icon of the Olympics, and it is an icon of Paris, as such, its waters and its world heritage banks have been featured in several films set in Paris.
Which of these movies featuring the Seine is your favorite?

FYC, Sheikh Raman's yacht cruises the Seine at night, while holding Bryan Mill's daughter, Kim captive.
Also, in James Bond's A View to Kill (1985), French detective Achille Aubergine is assassinated by May Day during a meeting with Bond atop the Eiffel tower. Zorin's bodyguard, May Day escapes capture by jumping from the top of Eiffel tower and deploying a steerable parachute. Bond then pursues her in a high-speed chase through Paris by comandeering a Parisian taxi until she lands atop a party barge cruising down the Siene river.

FYC, Mr. Oscar's first “appointment” for the day is transforming himself with prosthetics from a "captain of industry" into an "old beggar woman" who panhandles for change on a bridge over the river Seine.
FYI, There are a number of Seine river scenes in this movie. Although his first appointment is pretty memorable, since it gets the plot going and piques the viewer interest in Holy Motors (2012).
