He needs a shower


I just watched the first half by now but my main thought was I wonder if he ever took a shower. Watching the movie until then made ME want to take a shower.
Is it just me?

Um... you realize this is 17th century France, right? Bathing and showering weren't really that common, especially for someone of Grenouille's status. The director even wanted the cast to sleep and live in their costumes to make it more authentic.

Unless you were just trolling, then forget that I said anything.

Considering that I lived in France, the UK, The US, Germany, Italy, South America and Belgium, I probably have seen more of the world than you and probaly have more education, speaking several languages fluently, buddy.
I know that it was common back then. That's the whole point of the perfume production because they used perfume instead of bathing.
It was just an observation I made while watching the movie. When I watch other movies set in those days, the greasy feel isn't in your face like it was in this production that's all I'm saying.

Why are you such a douchebag? I mean dude, 'crazyj89' was being gentle by simply explaining to you a point you didn't seem to understand. And he even added some interesting details about actors sleeping with their clothes to make the whole dirty effect more realistic.

I quote you :

"It was just an observation I made while watching the movie. When I watch other movies set in those days, the greasy feel isn't in your face like it was in this production that's all I'm saying."

Well your point and your observation wasn't THAT fucqing obvious if you read yourself back on the first post.

I quote you again (because that's so damn hilarious how arrogant you were on that one) :

"Considering that I lived in blablablablablaBLAH I probably have seen more of the world than you and probaly have more education, speaking several languages fluently, buddy."

See, we don't care where you travelled, even if you went on goddamnknows planet, we don't care. The worse is that it doesn't even add something eloquent to your argument, so shutthehellup you fucq (HELL YEAH STFU)

But most of all, if you have been around the world as you say, and that you knew people back in 17th century used perfume over showers and baths in order to smell nice like your sister soft arse, then WHY the fucq do you even ask about Ben Whishaw taking a hot well deserved holy shower? I mean, that doesn't make any sense, I MEAN, REALLY, WTF?

Jeez that feels good, thanks for... yeah, for you, for being you. So I could unwind myself a little bit on some fucq which you are, you definitely are. yeah.

Now, go take a shower and wash all that negativity away, let pour the peace on your head to finally let it in inside your body through your butt and puking rainbows while singing "The Perfume" soundtrack, may yourself remain positive as fucq when you come back.

Have a great fucqing evening, SIR.

Travel broadens the mind, they say. It didn't work for our OP here, evidently.

You think he needs a shower? That's your problem with him? Really? I don't know, but me thinks he needs to stop killing young woman. Shower can come later.

Aside from all of the other replies, I would just like to point out that just because we didn't see him get the occasional dip in the lake doesn't mean he didn't. And he probably often had to put back on the same dirty clothes, depending on the season.

We didn't (*ahem*) see him go to the bathroom either.

Be sure to proof your posts to see if you any words out

There was no such thing as a "shower" for someone of Grenouille's class. Bathing in general in cities at the time was most likely a luxury item for the very wealthy.

Sure, if you lived in the country side you could take dips in a lake or river, but in the city? There is no plumbing, how would you do it?

It's spelled Raymond Luxury Yacht, but it's pronounced 'Throat-Warbler Mangrove'

When he couldn't smell his own scent in the cave he went out to take a shower under the rain. That. I remember...

all I could think was I wish I had a sponge and lots of soap and wash his face!
