Original Toronto Star caption: The magnificent basilica of Sacre-Coeur; above; is the heart and maybe the soul of Montmartre; the new or old district of Paris where the great artists of the last century labored and loved. Artists still haunt its streets; left; and so do singers; actors; dancers; thieves; les petites femmes (as the locals call the women of the street) and the people; above; who just want to forget. It has all that and stories to tell and sights to see for the stranger who approaches it with a little love and soupcon of understanding.
