The City of Lost Children (original French title: La cité des enfants perdus) is a 1995 French science fiction film directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Alien: Resurrection) and follows the adventures of a circus strongman whose adopted little brother is kidnapped by an evil scientist, who intends to steal children's dreams as he cannot dream himself.
While the film was met with mixed reception, the props and practical effects would inspire the visuals of Fallout: A Post-Nuclear Role-Playing Game.
The following weapons were used in the film The City of Lost Children:
FN Browning 1903
When abducting One's (Ron Perlman) adopted baby brother, one of the "Cyclopes," Bogdan (Dominique Bettenfeld), uses a FN Browning 1903.
Webley Mk VI
In the film's climax, Ms. Bismuth (Mireille Mossé), the mad scientist villain Krank's dwarf assistant, uses a Webley Mk VI pistol, seemingly gigantic to her, in an attempt to kill the little girl Miette.
Sawed-Off Shotgun
When confronting circus owner Marcello, "The Octopus'" henchman "The Peeler" (Rufus) carries a sawed-off double-barreled shotgun.
