The characters in Besson’s signature film, « Le grand bleu », set records by diving deeper and deeper and exactly describe their creator’s ambition : film after film, as a scriptwriter, director, producer, to achieve new cinema lows that will translate into box office records.
   I lived in Les Ormes, France in the mid 50's on Rue Du Pont. A family I knew on the some street by the name of Monsier, Madame Raymond, and daughter Michell and Nicole. Nicole ( Nicky ) married a Claude Roy and had one son Phippe in te 1960"s. If anyone has any information about the Raymonds or the Roys please contact them or me so that I may make contact with them. Thanks Teddy Bolton

Faced with a terrible film, a resourceful viewer, and irrepressible positive thinker, mines it for hidden reasons that may give it a hint of interest.
In such a perspective, even « Les anges de l’apocalypse » is not an absolute waste of time : the film provides clues about Besson’s amazing success, if not as a scriptwriter or a filmmaker, as a business man.

I came across serveral websites that advertised gite rental. However, the one we used was www.SimplyGites.com it was an easy to use site, and put us in contact with the owner. It was a great experience and would recommend it to anyone.

1 Read MoreHi, My friend and I are joining a winery tour to Chablis and Burgundy the late August. We are thinking to stop over to Paris for Friday-Sunday before we head up to Chablis.
In the Forum, I found that Normandie and Loire sounds interesting, are they public transportation accessible? Is train convenient?. IS day trip doable?
Also, we know nothing about lodging, such as B&B, hotel. Should we find some here close to train station? Any idea?

He inherited his fashion sense from his mother. He studied first at the Chambre Syndicale de la Couture, but felt frustrated by the syllabus so left after a few months. Saint Laurent left home at the age of 17 to work for the French designer Christian Dior. Following Dior's death in 1957, Yves, at the age of 21, was put in charge of the effort of saving the Dior house from financial ruin.

I’ve heard opening new credit card accounts can help (some say it could hurt) the score but i doubt that would be enough. I surfed the internet and read about credit repair experts that could help. Has anyone tried these guys? Do they really help and if they do how much can they help. The agency i talked to there name was Lexington, but not sure if they can help as much as they say they can.
Thanks for the advice.
