Things I've learned watching 'Elle'


I can't believe this comes from the man that created Robocop. The writing in 'Elle' is appalling

1) Always show the main lead buying melee weapons and going to the firing range for nothing, there'll be no scenes where this is relevant later on

2)Middle-aged, posh women run videogame companies

3) French videogame nerds also happen to own several big bore revolvers, despite the ultra strict French restrictions on firearms

4) Your neighbour always leaves for a week on her own at the best possible moment, allowing her husband to play around all he wants

5) People in French wealthy neighbourhoods park their cars on both sides of the road, making it impossible for other cars to pass through afterwards

6) A white father won't think anything of the fact that his newborn baby is black as night

7)After a rape, make sure you tidy up before you treat yourself medically

8)If a stranger walks into your flat while you were having sex, go see them strip naked, nonchalantly showing your untrimmed bush to the stranger

11. The lyrics to Lust for Life, when played in a bar, will rearrange themselves. Or something.
