If you do 'run off', later on you will probably break your legs trying to kick yourself in the arse...

A few questions to throw into the hat;

"Are you happy? A lot of your pics are a little...sombre...[we hope you are happy and fulfilled]."

"What would you most like to do with your life, if you had a completely free hand?"

"How do you have fun, what's your favourite thing to do to relax and enjoy yourself?"

"Why is there so little about you in the public domain?"

"Céline Sciamma has her third movie [Girlhood] out now. Do you think you will work with her again?"

"Who/what are your favourite directors/actors/films/plays?"

"DMt. says, Please, *Please*, Pauline, allow your birth time to be known...would that be OK?"

"What are you listening to at the moment - who are your favourite bands/musicians?"

"Do you ever get tired of people going OMG OMG you're so beautiful...?"

"Do you read much? Any books that have impressed you recently?"

"Do you know about your fan thread on Fucking-Amal.com?"

You'll have to take her out to dinner if you want answers to all of those.
But I'm not saying that like it's a bad thing.



Busy day.
The Les Lendemains DVD arrived and I haven't even had time to watch it yet.
(I did find time to make a couple of pics from the early scenes though. )

This pic, like the other one from Les L's, has had a blue background photoshopped in...evidently I'm not the only one who associates l'Acquart G with the blue end of the spectrum.

Owen controversially wrote:England is not my cup of tea (with milk, it's unbearable ). My experience with England has been unpleasant.

What's so unpleasant? [I mean *apart* from the rotting infrastructure, the atrocious food, the foul weather, the ugly industrialisation, the cowed, brutish and depressed populace, the arrogant, snobbish elites, the stewed, milky tea and the horrible beer... ]

DMt. wrote:...a blue background photoshopped in...

I'm not sure there's any photoshopping involved at all.

These three pics are scans from the film, and it looks like the blue band on the back of the bus stop is giving that blue look.





No subs on the DVD though. (Damn! )
But still some nice pic opportunities.

What can I say?





OMG!
Almost 120,000 as I write.

La Belle Acquart!

There are probably English subs out there, Fish - if you have VLC and DVDdecrypter, you can do a search for Les Lendemains .srt files, rip the DVD to your hard disk, put the sub file in the same folder, start up VLC, and Robert's your Dad's brother.

You forgot about the lack of great mountains and snowy winters.


I have nothing but good experiences on my trips over the Northern Sea.
Both in the south and up north.
Still only seen the midlands through train windows, though.

Some things you can put up with, but you have to draw the line somewhere.


Uh oh, Pauline's heard about the beer.

All the great minds come from the north.

DMt. wrote:A few questions to throw into the hat...

Impressive! (I would add this one: "Will you resume your studies?")

Anyway, I thought and rethought about this, and I can't do it in my current situation/state of mind. A live interview, if it were to be accepted, must be prepared, thought through, etc. However, I will sollicitate her agent, for a mail interview maybe.

A question on side: what is the legitimacy of a fan thread like this one?

Dreaming is good. Too much dreaming kills faster than a cigarette (well, not too sure about that... ).

DMt. wrote:What's so unpleasant?

Well, I came unprepared there (Cornwall) and... get cold... (If I want to get cold, I can just go outdoors in the vineyards, plenty of cold wind for everyone.)
But it was a group trip, so I couldn't do what I would have liked to. I'm biaised, actually (but the tea was really horrible, and the food too).

Fish, I've read reviews to Les lendemains, and it seems that Acquart is there only in the first part, so . Story is about the other girl.

I still haven't finished Les Lendemains yet.
Things have been very busy here, but I think there are some later scenes featuring Pauline.
I hope so.
But you are right, the story is about the "other girl".

Went to a family get together yesterday and had a chat with a relative who spent a year at University in Avignon.
She said the festival was a really big deal in the town as well as the surrounding area.
Spoke very highly of it.
I wish I could go too.

And you still need to do only what you are comfortable with, Owen.
I just hope you enjoy the performance and maybe take a couple of pics to post.



LaFAB: "Can someone give me an aspirin please?"

I heartily recommend the "I'm doing an interview!" approach, Owen. It's so much better than "I'm your number one fan!"

Trust me, I know.

Ian wrote:...Trust me, I know.

Yes. You have some experience at that, don't you?


Last Saturday Pauline went to the movies with Faustine and a few others from the "La bande à Juliette" crowd.
Don't know if they went all three days, but hopefully a few of them will post some pics. (Don't they always? )



I like Faustine. I'm glad Pauline still hangs around with her.

Just a little.
