Chaos in the GP Niki de Saint Phalle queue; calm at Mr. Turner and the National Gallery.

Niki de Saint Phalle at the Grand Palais:
The Good News: It's quite wonderful except for her horrible firing squad paint balloon nonsense
The Bad News: The staff minding the expedited line (Sesame, Groups, Press, etc.) was trained by United Airlines queuing experts.

But just in the nick of time, Timothy Spall/Mike Leigh and Frederick Wiseman demonstrate how a great painter works and how a great museum functions.  Two films open in Paris now worth the visit.

A lot of Wows!
