"Cleo embarks on a journey—by foot, in the city streets—during the course of which she takes on [the identity of a flâneuse]. [From The Guardian: A flâneuse is the female version of the flâneur, 'a figure of privilege and leisure, with the time and money to amble around the city at will. ... (But) rather than wandering aimlessly, ... the female flâneur has an element of transgression: she goes where she’s not supposed to.'] Cleo has all of Paris before her, and ... she belongs to Paris. Whereas earlier [in the film] she was self-absorbed and unaware, now, as she looks, muses, and responds to the city, she becomes both an observer of the crowd and a part of it." (Janice Mouton, From Feminine Masquerade to Flâneuse)
