Joy Division in "Nathalie"...

Went to see this flick the other day: apart from the divine Emmanuelle Beart, another reason for seeing it is a bizarre conversation about Joy Division. Bloke has just picked up a woman in a bar, and as her drives her back to his place "Atmosphere" is playing in his car stereo.

Him: "Do you like this music?"

Her: "Yes"

Him: "It's Joy Division. They used to be called Warsaw. Now they're New Order. They're very famous. I know them."

Her: "????????"

Him: "The singer hung himself"

Her: "Don't you hang yourself"

Him: "No, definitely not...."

He breaks the ice by talking about his NO/JD obsession and still manages to get laid. How unrealistic is that!!????

It's not that unrealistic, one of the first conversations i had with my girlfriend was about JD-NO, but then she's as nutty about them as i am. This film is called "Natalie" you say? My girlfriend and i will go see it just for that JD reference you mentioned.

Be warned - it's very French.....;)

Well, "Nathalie" does that very French movie thing of meandering around contemplating the transience and mysteries of sexual attraction in a mournful, navel-gazing way......

Please don't tell me you do that as well, Nic??!!??
