How to get HTTP response headers with Python urlopen()

Question

In this code

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import urllib2
import re

html_page = urllib2.urlopen("http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Turing")

soup = BeautifulSoup(html_page, "lxml")

print soup

I can return source code.

But how having http headers (in Python), please ?

Example :

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/1.9.4
Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2015 09:13:25 GMT
Content-Type: text/css; charset=utf-8

As the documentation explains, urllib2.urlopen returns an object with an info() method which returns the headers.

response = urllib2.urlopen("http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Turing")
info = response.info()
for header in info.headers:
    print header,
