but yeah, diving into the history of french new wave in film school, i was pretty much convinced that france was a land where impossibly beautiful women routinely hooked up with garden gnomes.

delon is the necessary counterpart to belmondo, impossible beauty vs bordelais rough trade

― Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Tuesday, 11 December 2012 23:55 (thirteen years ago)

belmondo won his three official fights according to wikipeda but i guess he lost enough other ones

― Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Tuesday, 11 December 2012 23:56 (thirteen years ago)

I would so do Belmondo but he probably reeks of Gauloises.

I would so do Belmondo and he probably reeks of Gauloises.

I would so do Belmondo; he probably reeks of Gauloises.

I should add that I really enjoyed Breathless and Belmondo is a striking screen presence -- I agree with "ugly-beautiful" as Alfred put it. I just saw the ugly more than the beautiful.

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/belle_laide

the first result for 'beau laid' = belmondo

― Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:03 (thirteen years ago)

delon is the necessary counterpart to belmondo, impossible beauty vs bordelais roug

Delon's type is much closer to rough trade in my experience

― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:05 (thirteen years ago)

yeah but have you skulked around the docks of bordeaux on a misty november evening in 1954?

― Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:08 (thirteen years ago)

yeah, delon seems more like he would knife you unsuspectingly. belmondo seems like he would prattle on about his life and hopes and dreams post-fuck until you just want him to leave.

― my dinner of butt (strongo hulkington's ghost dad), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:09 (thirteen years ago)

belmondo would maybe be more of a card shark

― Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:10 (thirteen years ago)

Belmondo would ask you for a ride, let you blow him, ask that you leave him on a corner, and, as you drive away, you notice he's stolen your cigarettes.

― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:10 (thirteen years ago)

Shit -- I just wrote a Choose Your Own Adventure.

its cool how when french people turn 60 they decide to just stand around in thongs for the rest of their days and turn into leather couches

Do you let Delon knife you in the back? Turn to pg. 55

Do you allow Belmondo to blow you? Turn to pg. 3.

"DATING A PETTY HOOD"

btw I never got over those faggoty sandals Jim wore to the beach.

― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:15 (thirteen years ago)

trouble with this is though there are probably a thousand belmondos, delon is nonpareil, so an ersatz delon would no more substitute than doug liman would for godard

― Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:15 (thirteen years ago)

are you straight?

― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:17 (thirteen years ago)

yes, but i'd probably have sex with belmondo

― my dinner of butt (strongo hulkington's ghost dad), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:18 (thirteen years ago)

yeah but i think hypothetical rough trade belmondo is straight no? xp

― Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:19 (thirteen years ago)

Delon tends to be the kind of guy Straight Guys Would Fuck.

― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:19 (thirteen years ago)

whereas as the kind of guy who Gay Guys Would Fuck is Jeanne Moreau.

― turds (Hungry4Ass), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:21 (thirteen years ago)

jeanne moreau is amazing

― Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:22 (thirteen years ago)

especially in diary of a chambermaid

― Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:22 (thirteen years ago)

not a fan of Chambermaid but can appreciate what Bunuel saw in her stride.

― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:23 (thirteen years ago)

the best post-1950s bunuel

― Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:24 (thirteen years ago)

whoa whoa -- better than El, Robinson Crusoe, Nazarin, Viridiana, The Exterminating Angel, Belle de Jour, The Discreet Charm --

my fingers hurt

― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:25 (thirteen years ago)

anyway Jean Renoir made a proto-Bunuelian Diary of a Chambermaid in the forties

― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:26 (thirteen years ago)

just uncontaminated social violence and trashing of la france profonde ruritanian pieties

nazarin was 50s iirc? viridiana.....maybe, i love viridiana though i think he was better with something more conventional and a little less archetypal to work against

his colour films are all overlit and slightly shonky, chamberbaid is tenebrist ether, lizardy camerawork, the spectre of poujadism lurking like nothing before seul contre tous

― Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:30 (thirteen years ago)

I guess this is the point where I shamefully admit that I have never seen a full length Bunuel film.

― Room 227 (cryptosicko), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:42 (thirteen years ago)

I mean, read enough to know that his films are something that I could either very easily love or very easily hate, but I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

― Room 227 (cryptosicko), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:44 (thirteen years ago)

I will cut anyone who doesn't love Bunuel.

― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:45 (thirteen years ago)

the last movie i saw that was really worth shit was EL SUR (erice, 1983)

otherwise some passable stuff, carax, james benning, kurt kren, ali which i preferred first time, con air, inside man was on tv the other day

― Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Wednesday, 12 December 2012 00:45 (thirteen years ago)
