"L'Age de raison", un film de Yann Samuell, avec Sophie Marceau et Marton Csokas

"Chère moi-même, 
Aujourd'hui j'ai 7 ans et je t'écris cette lettre pour t'aider à te souvenir des promesses que je fais à l'âge de raison et aussi te rappeler ce que je veux devenir..." 

L'Âge de Raison, un film de Yann Samuell

Un très beau film français
Avec Sophie Marceau et le très sexy Marton Csokas
Tourné à Saoû, le magnifique village des grands-parents d'une de mes meilleures amies
Tourné aussi dans les locaux de Natixis à Paris (ou alors, dans les locaux d'un "établissement bancaire" qui lui ressemble beaucoup, beaucoup).

Un film à voir, qui nous fait repenser à nos rêves d'enfant

Moscow, away we go...

What would I do if I were in Moscow these days ?

That's the discussion we had yesterday evening with family and friends during diner.

No such a difficult question in fact.
I would go.
Go away,
Far away from this hell...






Because when embassies start closing their doors,
When they prevent foreigners/people from coming there
When diplomats/politicians/embassadors leave and bring back their families to their home countries...

It's time to leave.

It's not that difficult.
You bring all the members of your family + pets
You make efficient suitcase (important papers + money + useful objects).
You close the door of your appartment.
You enter your car and you drive far away.
Wherever you may go, it will be better than breathing in that "oven".


In Moscow,
The airports are overcrowded.
All flights are full and delayed or cancelled.
The countryside burns all around.
The nuclear centrals are surrounded by fires.
People lack serious information as concerns the toxicity of the smoke.
The authorities are working hard but the task is so big.

Yes, I would leave if I were there.
I know that it is easier to say it when you are in from of your computer, in the French countryside, breathing a fresh pure air (at 25°C).

I would ask my boss a few days off.
I would leave even if he doesn't give them to me.

Because I would not take the risk to develop very serious diseases do to this F*****g smoke !
Those kind of diseases they have talked about in Occidental media/TV/Press/Radios all day long for a few weeks.

European specialists recently published alarming comparisons with European toxicity norms.

In bleu you have Europeans alert threasholds
In red you have official datas for Moscow
In green you have usual datas for Moscow

I want to think that Russian authorities do all their best.
But I know too that in case of a major crisis, the most important thing to do is to avoid panic.
And this, even if it means hiding real consequences to the population or real dangers.

So, yes, away from Moscow I would go and fast...

Photoshop Cream

Photoshop Cream or the secret to look young all your life long !

It reminds me of a former ad for Dove cosmetics, which said that our vision of beauty was distorded.

Just see by yourself...


And yet Madonna remains one of the most beautiful women in the world...

"Well, it was a million tiny little things that, when you added them all up, they meant we were supposed to be together..." -from the movie ''Sleepless in Seattle''

Doctor Marcia Fieldstone : 
People who truly loved once are far more likely to love again. Sam, do you think there's someone out there you could love as much as your wife?

Sam Baldwin : 
Well, Dr. Marcia Fieldstone, that's hard to imagine.

Doctor Marcia Fieldstone :
What are you going to do?

Sam Baldwin : 
Well, I'm gonna get out of bed every morning... breathe in and out all day long. Then, after a while I won't have to remind myself to get out of bed every morning and breathe in and out... and, then after a while, I won't have to think about how I had it great and perfect for a while.

Doctor Marcia Fieldstone : 
Tell me what was so special about your wife?

Sam Baldwin : 
Well, how long is your program? Well, it was a million tiny little things that, when you added them all up, they meant we were supposed to be together... and I knew it. I knew it the very first time I touched her. It was like coming home... only to no home I'd ever known... I was just taking her hand to help her out of a car and I knew. It was like... magic.
