I never suggested the French, as a nation, were all arrogant and chauvinist. I criticise French film (and French moldy cheese - seriously, guys, what the fuck? That's disgusting food!), but, for example, I admire French athletes. I supported France in the finals of 2006 World Cup, and I was furious when that wanker Materazzi provoked the greatest European football legend of all times, Zinedine Zidane.
And please understand that it's not "either you love French cinema, or you love crap." Hollywood produces tons of crap, but who can deny Welles, Hitchcock, Kubrick, Coppola, Fleming, Branagh or Fosse are geniuses? And how about Tarkovsky from Russia, Kurosawa from Japan or Bergman from Sweden - I'm sorry, but 50s "film noir" looks like school plays next to them. How about modern Slavic film, the ruthless yet uplifting "Pretty Village, Pretty Flame" by Dragojevic or heart-shattering Time of the Gypsies by Kusturica (who's a despicable man, but very fine director.) How about Almodovar, del Toro, Ki-Duk, Matanic, Lee? All fresher, more interesting and better filmmakers than anything French film ever had to offer.
Yes, the Lumiere brothers invented the film technology and Georges Melies was the first to realise films can tell a fictional story. That's the great - in fact, crucial - and undeniable contribution of the French to the film. After that, it's downhill. At least in the 50s the likes of Truffaut and Godard were copying good Hollywood films, but today, you get Besson who's a poor man's Lucas and Jeunet, a poor man's Boyle.

I remember I bought Furia soundtrack when it was first released but I was not very impressed and I gave it away to a friend of mine who was an obsessed fan of Brian (Needless to say she was much happier with it then me.) I'm not to judge if it is good or bad because I have also never seen the movie. I wish I did as it (the movie) could tell best if who the soundtrack was doing it.
However, all the remarks here about French movies here p*ssed me a bit off. I suppose in general French films are a bit too intelligently made for some Americans to swallow them (yeah, this ain't no popcorns and baseball!)

I have always had this opinion that some remarks don't deserve any reply at all. They are not worth debating. Because the debating itself affords them a relevance and significance they otherwise simply don't have.
There are these remarks which come to the world just to be forgotten and enjoy a faint, vague, pale existence while they quietly make their way into the oblivion.

Everything that the French do is shit. Please let me know if the French ever manage to make a decent song or a movie. But it's no wonder really because all the people are shit. I've been to France and met French people also outside France but I've never met a French person who isn't an arrogant, ill-mannered asshole. I doubt that it's possible to be French and still be a nice person. And Paris is probably the ugliest city in the world (a grey, drab, dirty and overcrowded place full of dog shit - I have no idea why anyone would want to go there, I was there once and that was enough). It's not my favourite country really. Especially French music is the biggest fucking joke in the world.
