Time travel to Paris in 1942

Montmartre is a famous location for films. Remember Amelie? Bob the Gambler, Ronin, Moulin Rouge and many others. The familiar steep atmospheric stairs, views of and from Sacre Coeur, the narrow hilly cobblestone streets lend themselves to cinema. Two friends on Instagram; @pretavoyager and @theearfultower who live in Montmartre documented, as you see below, what met them every day.

This happened at the beginning of March. Rue Androuet and the adjoining streets became changed into a film set. The movie set in 1942 had period cars, German troop trucks, motorcycle side cars and storefronts built and signs posted from that era.  So they'd started filming and then President Macron everyone to stay home.

To leave your building to exercise, walk your dog, go for groceries or to the pharmacy was permitted. To do that you needed to print out or hand write your personal 'derogatoire' to state your reasons and you will be subject to checkpoints and fined if you're not on sanctioned business.
The police ask for 'Papers, please.' 

In Le Parisien yesterday an article 

pointed out that the streets of Montmartre

 felt eerie for three reasons;

 they were deserted,

 that the stage decorations

 and store fronts of the 1942 movie 

are still in place and that police

 were asking anyone on the street

 for 'Papers, please.

Just like Paris
in 1942.
