Funny, I was just reading about that! Check out Jean Dujardin auditioning for ALL the movie villains – I got a good chuckle. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7RJsKDsLsw

Hah – Di, serendipity (serenDIpity?): got a dvd from the library (Tell No One), and the first trailer was for “Cairo, Nest of Spies” starring M. Dujardin as OSS 117, “France’s answer to James Bond.” Hop to that!

I think I was taking off my coat or something during the opening credits because I didn’t know the main characters were French until the end! Actually, the moment when he says “With pleasure!” and you can hear his accent. I had been wondering who they were; they looked so familiar somehow, and yet I knew I hadn’t seen them in anything and wondered why not. Since I hadn’t had an inkling beforehand, I didn’t get that they were speaking French sometimes in the dubbed parts. So that was part of the fun for me! Because the film was silent, that part of the illusion was kept for the whole film – not something you could pull off in a talkie. Unless you were going to go for a Singin’ in the Rain deal, yeah…

I relate to “those words do not look the same in French.” I once saw an English-language movie dubbed in French with German subtitles. The funniest bit was where one character hollers, “No! No! No! No!”, which was fine for the dubbing because “Non!” fits, but the titles read, “Nein! Nein! Nein! Nein!” The audience howled!

Also: he certainly did eat the snow on that chair, or a little bit of it anyway. (I’m not sure it was actually first of all, but that’s ok.)

That part with the question marks in the Snow Picnic – I think he was saying “melt away-way-way!” (Previously, we were eating snow in the driveway that melted away on our tongues.)

I appreciate having a nephew who is able to sing a song and tell a story on cue. He knows that “Thank you” is followed by “You’re welcome” and he knows that “Tell me a story” is followed by “Once upon a time, there was a…”

I should also point out that Dylan, later in the story, is purported to have said “Yes, back!” So, you know, drama.
