As with many of his films, René Clair returned to the editing room with UNDER THE ROOFS OF PARIS in 1950. But unlike such films as PARIS QUI DORT, which received extensive edits, here only one scene, a sort of prologue, was cut. The scene, presented here, was the original opening of the movie. The familiar "rooftops of Paris" shot followed, after which the film ran in the order we know today.
