Part 2/8:
The story unfolds through the eyes of Gil Pender, a successful yet disillusioned Hollywood screenwriter who dreams of becoming a novelist. Accompanied by his fiancée Inez and her affluent parents, Gil visits Paris, a city he adores and longs to immerse himself in, especially during the rain. Despite his romanticized vision of Paris as a haven for artists and dreamers, Inez dismisses his aspirations as mere fantasies, viewing them as impractical and disconnected from reality.
