Céline's last words: “They were heavy” Excerpt from his first filmed interview in 1957 for TV show “Lectures pour tous” If sufficient interest, I do whole thing, 19 minutes! Special thanks to @1147x1147 and Leo Caesaris for refinements. Please follo them if you don't already!

@bronzeagemantis @1147x1147 @leo_caesaris “I found 3 or 4 good ones, out of thousands...” I think about that statement a lot for some reason (probably seen this excerpt like a dozen times over the years when it was on YT). You should post the full version, if you have it. I'm not sure I've seen the entire thing.

“There is very little lightness in man […] since the automobile, alcohol, ambition, politics make him heavy, always heavier…” - Celine. Clear from the tone of this video how Houellebecq has carried the spirit of Celine into the present. Thank you for the fantastic translation, Baron.

@1147x1147 @leo_caesaris Great job! Btw 'Percheron' he mentions as the opposite of 'Thoroughbred' is a draft-horse, big, heavy and lacking elegance.

@1147x1147 @leo_caesaris Since I turned 40 I have striven to live lightly after much heaviness and vexation of spirit, despite being caught up in dramatic world events

@1147x1147 @leo_caesaris His face, his fitness, he expresses himself like a man of the 17th century.

@1147x1147 @leo_caesaris Interested! I esp. liked contrast between women who wear twill vs lace.

@1147x1147 @leo_caesaris « … J'aime toujours les danseuses. Je n'aime même que cela. Tout le reste m'est horrible… » '… I always love dancers. That's all I like. Everything else is horrible to me…'

@1147x1147 @leo_caesaris I do not believe that the interpretation of the word "heavy" in this case would be like what it would mean to us. in this interview he declares he is not a being of joy, for instance

@Athens_Stranger @1147x1147 @leo_caesaris You can afford to be light when you're winning.
