Just enjoyed the movie on BBC4, despite the at times annoying unironic Nouvelle Vague mimics (the garden scene with girl in cape being the most obvious example).<br /><br />Was also struck by the beauty of that song. Guess anyone with half a heart would be.<br /><br />I found Byredo's Bal d'Afrique a pretty fine accompaniment for my viewing.

A mix of the Parisian avantgardism and African culture shaped a unique and vibrant expression. The intense life, the excess and euphoria is illustrated by Bal d'Afrique's neroli, African marigold and Moroccan cedarwood.<br /><br />In thanks.Man About Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08955907120245620635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9141744783938961022.post-66475154235546286032009-06-21T00:15:08.871-04:002009-06-21T00:15:08.871-04:00Thank you for translating.
