I tried a few of the servers, the pages load very quickly, search is fast etc. But when I click on the play arrow, a long time elapsed before the video starts.
Is this expected? (is this because ads are being skipped in the background)?
I think you're talking about "Boy meets girl" by Leos Carax. I do remember the scene when the hero jumps the metro still by somersaulting over it... (the somersault is in the trailer https://youtu.be/uA-jdQIWGKA?t=88)
