The French cinema was always eager for brilliant dialogues. After Jacques Pretvert and Henry Jinson, Michelle’s audience was able to print a very deep -unique neck that remains absolutely uneven today. In the extraordinary blend of the banner and the sense of social observation that can be too far and very deep, the audio forced his characters like no one.
The rainbow, bleeding, sometimes soaked in acid … its dialogues were completely in the service of his talents. Among them, his cooperation with Jean Gabin was absolutely exceptions. “It is said that I was talking about Gabin; That’s not so, Gabin had a wonderful language in life. ” Audiard will tell you in an interview with the Movie Magazine. “When we talked to the actor several times, we feel his language, his pace, his silence, if necessary …”
An incredibly prophetic film
In 1960, the audience wore a pen at the service of the movie Le President, directed by Henry Vernuel. Adapted from George Simenon’s novel, published in 1958, this fictional policy – one of the rare French cinema – prophetic in the prophetic way of questions more relevant: Europe, political courage. The honesty of the elected officialsInfluence of economic powers and general interest …
Thus, the president is Jean Gabin, Aliya é Il Bofort, the former President of the Council. He may be released from political life, he remains an influential figure for a whole generation. This is especially the case with Philip Chalamont, the head of his former headquarters (remarkably embodied Bernard Blier), who asked him to talk to him. Émile Beaufort remembers …
If Simenon’s model was George Clemenso for the character of his retired old politician, we mainly think of de Goles. Emil Buffort is not a soldier, but he shares a general love for his country’s love and desire to believe that he only deserves pure.
“Politics, gentlemen, should be a profession. But for the greatest number, it’s a profession”
In the president, the replicas are shot in the footsteps of bullets. As this farmer applied to Gabin: “We are governed by women who are noting the price of beetroot and who did not expire to increase radish.” Here, this exchange between the Deputy and the President: “When you don’t want power, you give up on it: You can live a shade very well … – and never get it out. You know something about it!”
Elsewhere, the buffort remembers the very agitated council of ministers. His Finance Minister talks and presents a project for the devaluation of the currency, and each minister protests this idea …
“I will not teach you any gentlemen, we remind you that most of the world in the world of England, America, Japan, Sweden, Austria has evaluated their currency. Governments that preceded the US with respect for financial Orthodoxy, which is strongly attached to the great capital. “
When Chalamont shares, years later, his desire to candidates for the Council’s presidential candidacy is better than others, but not worse, Gabin gave him scatization: “This is what you want for your country: a man who is not worse than any other. But when we have this ambition, we open the market. We don’t run the nation!”

Another little anthology? “Between national interest and the violation of confidence, there is a limit” – “We must accept democracy as it is, this democracy that the great politician said was the worst regimes, except for all others.”
The film ACME, of course, is the extraordinary monologue of Bofort-Gabin, which was expressed in the National Assembly. Although the opposition, led by Chalamont,, Torpedo’s European project is a contraindication to the old fox of politics at the end of an anthology discourse. Initially, speech should turn into one sequence. But in the length of the text in a panic, Gabin refuses to be on this device.
Here again …
“Politics, gentlemen. Must be a profession … I’m sure it is for some of you … but for the greatest number, it’s a profession. A job that doesn’t fix as fast as many wants and and many wants and many wants and many Wants and many wants and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot to want and a lot wants and many wants and many wants and many wants and many wants and many wants and many want Many want and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and a lot of wants and many wants and many wants and many want And many wants and many want and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and want a lot and a lot of people wants and many wants and many wants and many want He wants and wants a lot and wants a lot and wants a lot and wants many and wants a lot and wants a lot and wants a lot. That requires a great deal of funding because the election campaign is expensive!
But for some large companies this is an amortized investment for four years … and as long as the council presidency is protesting, then there is a surprise! Financiers of the past bought mines in Djelitzer or ZOA, and still realized that the reign of Matinon was better than in Oubangui and that the deputy was less valuable than the compensation of King Negro! “
Gabin performs his interference with these words: “You’re going to make friends with Mr Chalamont, a fate against Europe. The hard industry Europe against peace. This Europe there will do it without me. I’ll leave you!”
64 years later, Beaufort-Gabin’s words did not complete the resonance …
