Jefferson in Paris

Nick Nolte, Gwyneth Paltrow, Estelle Eonnet, Thandie Newton

released: 1995 Mar 31   duration: 2:13:41

One of the obsessive speculations in American history is whether Thomas Jefferson, in the years before he became president, had an affair with (and fathered a child with) his 15-year-old slave Sally Hemings. Here we follow Jefferson to France, and see the death of his wife, his friendships and flirtations with the French, and his relationship with his daughters and slaves from home (especially Sally), against the backdrop of the beginning of the French Revolution.

At 28:33, a man juggles 3 balls for 4 seconds outside a French cathedral.
