L'actrice Alice Tissot est née le 1er janvier 1890, au 56, rue de la Pompe. Son état-civil mentionne un mariage le 22 juin 1912 à Asnières-sur-Seine avec André Barthélémy Georges Augereau, ainsi que la profession de son grand-père et de son père, vernisseur. Elle a mené, à partir de 1908, sous la direction de Louis Feuillade, une carrière cinématographique extrêmement prolifique (sa filmographie compte plus de 300 titres). En 1962, elle a fait une dernière apparition cinématographique : un petit rôle dans la super production Le Jour le plus long. Alice Tissot est morte des suites d’un cancer du larynx en mai 1971. 🌹⭐️

Each resistance group was listening for the code phrase that meant something to them personally; that someone was safe in England, that a delivery could be expected, and so on. Many meant nothing, just there so an increasing number of messages did not trigger a Nazi response, and to suggest that attacks happened ever day in one way or another. Apparently on the day before D-Day, EVERY message caused someone or a group to act. The two lines from Verlaine were actually a signal of MANY people to act in concert: get ready, -and GO!

On 5 June 1944, the BBC sent this message to the French Resistance to begin sabotage efforts: "“Blessent mon coeur / D’une langueur / Monotone.” Translation by Arthur Symons: "My heart is drowned / In the slow sound / Languorous and long." From a poem by Paul Verlaine (1844-1896).
@stevetheduck14252 ай бұрын
Les sanglots long de la violons d'autonne / blessent mon couer d'un longeur monotone' The long sobs of the violins of autumn / wound my heart with a monotonous langour. The German version is heard in the film as well. Two-part messages were: 'in the next few days' and the 'tomorrow morning' signals. The allied troops did not know exactly which day they would land, but the first part was sent when the decision to go was made, and the second when the ships started their approach to the beaches, some of which were on their way when the first message was sent. In some cases, the message arrived only hours before the landings and the sabotage had already begun.
