This man!

One of the worst movies I've ever watched.

We want a sequel with the original casts!

La romance française

The strings at the beginning let us know we’ve ascended to the highest rungs of high culture

❤❤❤

Ce documentaire est très bien, puisqu'il nous raconte du début à la fin les changements de notre planète

Que c'est beau Merci pour tout

Those who are disappointed leave now?? Odd thing to say

Bonjour, ce film est extraordinaire, que j'ai regardé déjà plus de 10 fois, je le diffuse auprès des mes amis et je continue avec mes faible moyen à interpeller. Merci pour ce film magnifique. Bonne continuation! Courage ! ❤

Gracias desde Durango, México.

She dubs Collette in the French dub of Ratatouille

General Marquis de Montcalm

10:46 Tom McCarthy reading ARG. Dear planet earth, can we please have more recordings of Tom McCarthy thoughtfully reading either his own work or other writers of his choice. (And more lectures/conversations too. 💛)

Lea, is a very warm person. She allways trys to touch hands, a little hug, even a smootch... she is my fovorite actor becouse she plays difficult parts, and has a 1000 different faces.

"Ermm...umm...extooor-di-naaary...and sooo-so-much..." Lord help us. Thankfully De Waal's writing isn't so exquisitely painful and "performative" as his hyper-self-conscious public speaking...or then again, maybe it is? Now reading "Swann's Way", and I'm constanly surprised at how even in the midst of his discursive and elaborative perambulations, not one word or sentence seems meant as filler or fluff. Every word is thoughtfully chosen and every stream of sentences a treasure. (The translation is Lydia Davis'.)

This seems to be less about Rabelais and more about Simon Mc Burney opinions on writing on the level that others cannot aspire to.

I like that glitter in his eyes. When he talks about the things that make him inspired and make him curious. 'A proper charmer', Carl (..)

Wow! It's a remainder of this great book "On love"! In Poland we have a great luck to have marvelous translations od french literature by Boy Żeleński for more than a century now, including the whole od Stendhal.. Great privilege ♥️

audio only in left ear?

Begins at 6.30

I couldn't make heads or tails of what(ever) he said. Colette is at the top of my list of favorite authors of all times. Pity.

Xxxxxx

Hmm. This was about Edmund de Waal, not about Proust.

The child being born from the ear or responds with the gnostic notions of the Christ coming out in the Virgin‘s ear instead of miraculous conception

Benjamin Bilohay 😂

Boyd Tonkin, I look forward to reading your articles.

I am afraid that Edmund de Waal needs help. May be a little bit of motherly love would do it. God bless you Edmund.

Interviewer, talks too much nonesense,in introduction

He won't be able to sign any books after the talk ?? ! What a loss ...! Presumably his Swiss Bank Account is already full to the brim !

I love his voice, amazing.

Alain de Bottom est un genie !

Tonkin : the Archetype of the Guardian / BBC left - liberal middle class tosser . Although , like others of his type his leftist sympathies only extend to the point where they might threaten his privileged lifestyle. The personification of liberal White Guilt in other words . Promoting Diversity and " anti - racism " salves their conscience. Whilst costing them nothing.

je suis là pour enjeux lol!

FIRST

Chapter IX of the second book (How Pantagruel found Panurge, whom he loved all his Lifetime) is my favorite part. They meet this traveler on the road who tries to communicate his distress in several languages...it is IMHO the perfect blend of the biblical tower of babel and monty python.

I have done a three years diploma in French and have read many French authors and am acquainted with them. Having read Victor Hugo, Alexander Dumas, Emile Zola, Guy de Maypassant, Voltaire, Jean Jacques Rousseau, Gustav Flaubert, Madam de Beauvoir, and curious to read many more French authors of French literature in French itself such as Marcel Proust I was thinking of doing further research/ studies as an advertisement had come in a Indian International newspaper " Times of India " in July , but because of the Coronavirus couldn't do it.But I am not pessimistic, let's hope this corona 🤣😂🤣😂 Pandemic which is really haunting mankind lessen its sway.

great interview and Drew is such a nice guy :)

Hi com dram

Zi sound iz complètement pourrave, mais il y a quand même quelques bons moments.

I watched your movie and I didn't believe that Guillaume Canet was speaking Russian himself. First I thought it was doubling. But if he really did himself - GREAT WORK and MUCH RESPECT for that. Now he must come to Russia and make movies or theater plays here

Never knew he spoke le francaise

Je comprends pas trop le principe des entrevues en anglais vu que les anglais se contrefoutent des artistes francophones. Du snobisme ? Une façon de dépenser son budget media à l'institut ? Il semblerait que ça a duré un temps et que les subventions se sont arrêtées en 2015.

Je me rappelle ses interventions régulières depuis Londres dans l'émission radio de Bernard Lenoir sur France Inter dans les années 90 pour prescrire nombre de groupes anglais pas très bons et bien oubliés depuis. Ca sentait fort l'anglomanie et le mépris pour les talents français (et autres "non-anglo-saxons") que ni lui ni Bernard ne voulaient reconnaître (hormis quelques très rares exceptions obligées de chanteurs "paravent" : Miossec, Dominique A). A la France le snobisme des tenants du modèle subventionné français (aide à la presse, intermittence, etc.) obnubilés par l'Angleterre et tant désireux de promouvoir les artistes anglais et à l'Angleterre une forme de nationalisme tacite culturel ultra-libéral bien partagé par les médias et les artistes anglais puisque ceux-ci en profitent.

Botton has literally no idea what he's talking about when he makes pronouncements on day-to-day life, particularly when it comes to relationships and women. It's amazing that someone with such little insight and experience has something of an audience. I hear the cowardice and weakness in his voice in every sentence.

Geoff Dyer obviously is a fan of writers( Lawrence, Orwell, Camus, Berger) who've had a great moral sense. He worships these writers like a jazz fan worships great jazz players. He loved in Camus the sun worship, the naivety, the joy in life and the senses, whilst also being aware of how the allegorical fiction breaks down on closer examination to betray what is hidden, unsaid about the French colonial experiment and occupation in Algeria, which Camus is unwittingly complicit with. He seems drawn more to the marvelous essays for their lyricism. He mentions the Outsider and Camus turning the French fear of the impenetrable Arabs into his own love of France and French culture. I think if he hadn't done this talk he would have coughed up a book on Camus similar to the one he wrote on Lawrence. His anecdote of visiting Algeria and Camus' birth house was interesting ( even though it was on commission). I feel he takes his critical readings by Judt, Said, and O'Brien as elaborating his more in-depth re-readings of Camus say vis-a-vis his mother and Algeria. His picks up on the pomposity of Camus, his old-fashioned, oracular style of writing,closer to the 19th century than the 20th century. The way the obligations of French writers to be intellectuals, with their opinions demanded on every political subject, was something that Camus wanted to resist. The fact that stands out is that all these writers were in some sense outsiders to the politics of their cultures( including Raymond Williams).

Speaking of ethnic persecuation, what about the Palestinians?

Great movie and awesome actress ♥

Hes so funny
