Jefferson in Paris French Revolution Francaise 1995

[levantisca]

Pero que gente tan estúpida la que solo habla del idioma, tendrían que agradecer que la trayectoria y obra de su presidente sea accesible a todos los pueblos y por todos conocida; insultan la inteligencia y genio de Jefferson, son indignos de su legado, patanes e ignorantes engreidos; pedantes y pueblerinos en el peor sentido

This movie is supposed to be in English and French, not this filthy pig latin.

Wow...I didn't know Nick Nolte spoke Spanish so well. LOL.

It is a pity that France abolished her monarchy. French royal ceremonies were usually grand spectacles and would have been nice to watch them today.

[Perversus666]

@agemangirl1919 Don't say such silly things please. Are you saying that those ridiculous and expensive ceremonies were better than giving democracy to the french people ? If you don't know, I'll tell you : the average french peasant was starving at this time, when the nobles were hunting deers or spending millions playing to cards... It's a bit like having a drink with Bernard Madoff and laugh about the homeless people.

[agemangirl1919]

@Perversus666

Oh, please, you are overreacting. I hear that Madoff's son took his own life.

Louis was a gentleman. He wanted to do the right thing. He refused to allow his guards to fire on his people. He defended his Queen and pleaded on her behalf for mercy. He died with bravery. Whatever one thinks of the French monarchy or his predecessors or of the system over which he presided, Louis XVI was a lived and died a man.

Does anyone know of any good material to look at i am doing 5 page report on reviewing thomas jefferson as a president thnks

[Hendo56]

Nick Nolte... as Jefferson... what is wrong with this picture??

[marym499]

@Hendo56 Nick Nolte can play anyone or anything, he's fantastic!! a bit disturbed but a fantastic actor!!

[Hendo56]

Hmm... no, I think he's a fantastic actor, too, but he's no Jefferson.

[marym499]

well I think he's great as Jefferson, this was a good movie, I enjoyed his acting.

[Hendo56]

Well, that's good. I'm glad you liked this movie. But Jefferson was educated, gentlemanly, well versed and mannerly. None of which shows in Nolte's performance.

[marym499]

Maybe he's not as refined as you would have liked but I liked the country gentleman aspect of his characterization and his pride of being a farmer and a Virginian. but thanks for your comments.

[Hendo56]

Well, that's why they made Nick Nolte's version for you, and Stephen Dillane's extraordinary version in "John Adams" for me. C'est la vie!

[marym499]

Yes, now everyone's happy

[imsickandtired]

@Hendo56 well said... hes just so wrong as jefferson.

[OconByrd519]

This version of Thomas Jefferson's stint as emisary to France is terrible by acurate historical standards.

[SaintPopeStar]

Comment se fait t'il que pour une production française Ce Thomas Jefferson parle espagnol au lieu de l'anglais ??

[Freez57fr]

C'est la version espagnole... donc Jefferson parle en espagnol (et les français parlent en français comme en VO)

[Android3008]

which king is that?, Louis xvi was young at that time!

[GenevaxD]

stupid founding fathers :/

[Hughganaught]

Why is Jefferson speaking Spanish? I don't get it...

[talesdauphin]

Me 2,but it's nice to see this great scene anyhow...

[laraison]

bloody hell...I would have preferred to see the original version...
