‘Rendezvous’: Claude Lelouch’s insane sprint across Paris



How could I forget to mention Rendezvous? I’m a fan of great gunfight scenes in movies (From Scarface to Smokin’ Aces: the art of the gun scene) and, of course, high-octane car chases (Car chases in movies: Bullitt, Terminator 2, Mad Max 2…). About two years ago, I shared some of my favorite car chase scenes, covering films like Terminator 2: Judgment ... More

Seinfeld is back (kind of…): Giddyup!

The Seinfeld Reunion. Any big fan of the classic sitcom had dreamt about it since Seinfeld ended. It was 11 years ago. And I have to admit I was and still is a huge fan of Seinfeld. The best sitcom ever (and I watch many TV shows: Lost, Battlestar Galactica, Nip/Tuck, House M.D… Addicted!, The Big Bang Theory: Am I really that kind of Nerd?, Dexter and ... More
Claude Lévi-Strauss: ‘Triste disparition’…

Claude Lévi-Strauss has died last week, at 100.

Thanks to all of you who watched my online show yesterday! We have sent many invitations (registered, regulars, on request, newcomers…) and almost everyone could make it and connected to the server. The live feed went fine and I appreciate the many questions you asked me. Most of them were very specific and made me realized there are some experts ... More
Darfur, Congo, Burma: is ‘good will’ enough?

The plights in Darfur, Congo and Burma are different on many aspects but the initiatives launched by organizations (human rights, humanitarian, etc) all have the same goal: help the people living in danger and provide them assistance when needed. As you may already know, I truly think Tall oaks from little acorns grow, nevertheless I am not naive and I know ... More

Working on the new show and jewelry collection

September has been a very busy month for two main reasons: first because I am working on my next show and it is, as always, a lot of work. I will unveil several new works from 2 new series soon. The series are not complete yet so it will be very exclusive to the show since any of them will be publicly revealed before 2010. Second reason I have been very ... More
