Media Appearance
The SS France, as one of the last transatlantic ship-cruisers before the jet era, was also treated as the connection between for e.g. New York and France. This was shown well in Le gendarme à New York where the main characters sail on the France. The film also shows some of the 60's interior of the ship.

Famous quotes containing the words media and/or appearance:
“The media transforms the great silence of things into its opposite. Formerly constituting a secret, the real now talks constantly. News reports, information, statistics, and surveys are everywhere.”
—Michel de Certeau (1925–1986)
“Never before has a generation of parents faced such awesome competition with the mass media for their children’s attention. While parents tout the virtues of premarital virginity, drug-free living, nonviolent resolution of social conflict, or character over physical appearance, their values are daily challenged by television soaps, rock music lyrics, tabloid headlines, and movie scenes extolling the importance of physical appearance and conformity.”
—Marianne E. Neifert (20th century)
