Chanel’s short homage focuses on a key scene in the movie in which the two leads sit opposite each other in a Deauville hotel restaurant, dancing via dialogue ever more closely together. In the original scene, a handbag—Aimée’s own Chanel bag—was placed by the director Claude Lelouch on the table between them. That placement is repeated in the new Cruz and Pitt film. The new version also sees them served by a waitress, played by Rianne Van Rompaey, to whom Cruz eventually asks the question: “Do you have any rooms available?”
