Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAs the actual Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral was under reconstruction, none of the scenes could be shot there. So other cathedrals had to fill in the main role. First, the Bourges Cathedral was used for many scenes outside the cathedral. Then, the Notre-Dame d'Amiens Cathedral, whose spire and certain parts of the building are similar to those of Notre-Dame. Finally, the Saint-Étienne cathedral in Sens, where the forecourt, the tower stairs and the nave were used, as well as the scenes where the 13th century wooden framework is catching fire.
- GoofsAt 1h20m42s the "live stream" of the Collossus appears clearly to be a video running on MPC due to the Option Menu showing after a right click on the footage.

What is this film supposed to be?
On the one hand, it's very interesting how this film is almost devoid of a personal history or development of the characters. Also there is are no real main roles at all. On the other hand, it's what's missing to make it entertaining. So we see a lot of rescue workers who don't really know what to do, a city population that ignores and hinders the rescue workers and an 800 years old cathedral that almost burns down completely.
Not so exciting, because apart from the tragedy of the destruction, nothing special happens. No special event shown or a known reason is told for this catastrophy that answers our only question: why this happened? ... like in millions of other fires where old buildings simply start burning for seemingly no reason. But is this enough for a entertaining flick? I think not. Not if it's not artfully staged and it isn't. Sometimes you even think you're watching a B-movie.
A real documentary would have been more exciting than an entertainment film without a real story that doesn't know what it's supposed to be.
