ok, so i treated myself to a french farce, with subtitles, called le placard (the closet)...it is released by miramiax, so it was a safe bet....and absolutely hysterical.........it involves a nondescript fellow named pignon who finds out he will be laid off from a condom factory near paris.......to save his job, his next-door neighbor digitally adds his head to gay-bar photos, then mails the photos to the head of pignon's company....who freaks out.....if the gay community hears that they have fired pignon, they will assume it is because he is gay......and will boycott them.......the twists that come of this are guffawingly funny at times....i have watched it twice.......and depend on the subtitles.......they speak so quickly and in such hushed tones i cannot make out the syllables en francais...........please add to my epitaph....she wanted so badly to speak good french.......
