Absolutely OT, but you made me remember an old (very funny) spot for Canal+ (circa 2009/2010):
"Never underestimate the power of a great story"
JFYI:

- chernevik 4y agoOk, this got an actual spit-take from me Brilliant
- dylan604 4y agoOkay, I think I now have a new appreciation for Canal+. They seem to have a similar approach as the curated content before a feature at Alamo Drafthouse. After watching your link, it auto-played into the next one for me which was just as entertaining: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNd_hUqEEl4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNd_hUqEEl4 My only previous experience with Canal+ was engineering digital US content workflows for their platform. I never got to see any of their local stuff like this.
- jaclaz 4y agoyes, that's another classic. ... when they pass their eggs to each other ...

- AlbertCory 4y agoI don't think I've ever seen a French film that did NOT have Canal+ in the credits.
- js2 4y agoLet me offer you some not Canal+ French films I've enjoyed: Breathless; Hiroshima Mon Amour; Diva; My Life as a Zucchini; Jeanne Dielman, 23, Quai du Commerce 1080 Bruxelles; The Rules of the Game; Last Year at Marienbad; La Collectionneuse; The Green Ray; One Sings, the Other Doesn’t; The Kid with a Bike; The 400 Blows; My Night at Maud's; The Wages of Fear.
- AlbertCory 4y agoHmm... all older films?
- js2 4y agoMostly because you’re right: Canal+ has its hands on everything.
- AlbertCory 4y agoIndeed that's a recent impression. I wasn't looking for Canal+ when I watched (many of) those older films.
- david927 4y agoNot OT. Casablanca is considered by most film critics to be one of the greatest films created and that's one of it's most powerful scenes. But I'm glad it made you think of that commercial; it was really funny.
