Jellied eels, anyone? 🤢
But really, the prevalence of take-aways and delivery services is not a uniquely American phenomenon, and it's a little bizarre to assume so. 👀

I might try to tackle a few here and there, just for myself - I've been meaning to get back into writing for years, and if I manage to put together some kind of map for a setting, I might be able to pull myself back into writing for that setting. Or... something. 😄

They are a lot of fun - I used to draw them like this (albeit, not nearly as well) in my teens for stories I was writing.
It was actually the direction I was originally planning to go when I started getting into map-making for TTRPGs, but I wound up drifting into battle maps instead!

Yeah, it did sour my enjoyment a bit, but it gets so much worse:
I think I was vaguely suspicious Depardieu was a creep, but didn't realize he has an extensive history of allegations. To add to that, Corneau, the director, was posthumously accused of grooming a 16 year old in the 90s. Christ.

Right? Especially given some of the conversations about authenticity. 👀
They could have just shot around it, too - the first shot has Depardieu's character perform with the instrument off-camera, and it's very effective! Just use creative angles and occasional inserts of the performer's hands! D:

Heather and I also watched Amadeus recently, and Tom Hulce apparently spent hours every day for months learning to play the piano in preparation for the role.
I feel like for a film about the importance of music to these musical masters, expecting believable performances is the bare minimum.

Even without learning to play the instrument, I wish someone had at least told them the appropriate moment to pretend to trill (not while holding a single note), or where on the frets you place your fingers (adding a 2nd finger to the same string and fret that you're already playing does nothing).

Guillaume Depardieu could play the cello, and Anne Brochet apparently learned to play the viola da gamba for her role in the film, so their playing was *significantly* more believable, but this only made the pretense of Marielle and the elder Depardieu's playing even more blatant.

It's been years since I drew a region map like this - I kind of miss it. 👀

Ah, I see - the pressure of a target was stressing them out, so their performance suffered. Without the target, they can relax, and perform at their best.
That makes sense.

I really feel this - I've gotten so much worse for doom scrolling over the last 3 years or so. I'm trying to distance myself from it more recently, but it can be *rough*.
It doesn't help that Heather and I are fairly isolated out here, but we're hoping that'll improve once I'm driving. 👀

I added this film to my watchlist recently, but I assumed it was relatively recent because I'd never heard of it before seeing 3/4 friends talk about it in the last month.
I've only seen one Kiyoshi Kurosawa film (Tokyo Sonata), but I'm still surprised it took me so long to learn about this one. 👀
