New York Herald Tribune (21 Rue de Berri)
In the story · Godard's cameo
Patricia works at the Paris office of the New York Herald Tribune, the paper she hawks on the Champs-Élysées, and it is outside these doors that Godard himself, in his cameo as a passer-by, recognises Michel from the front page and points him out to the police. A brass plaque recalls the newspaper's years here from 1930 to 1978.
