Opening scene from THE AGE OF IGNORANCE, last film of Denys Arcand, presented in last Cannes Fim festival (2007), where RW performs a role of a prince singer (not "rebel" in this case). In this scene, RW sings a beautiful aria of Zemire et Azor ("opèra comique" inspired in "Beauty and the Beast" story in the original French libretto) of André Ernest Modeste Grétry (1741 -- 1813) who throughout the late 18th century, was the dominator of this genre.
The lyrics, below...
Escena inicial de L'ÂGE DES TÉNÊBRES, darrera pel•lícula de Denys Arcand, presentada a Cannes 2007, on RW interpreta el paper de un "príncep cantant" (no "rebel" en aquest cas). En aquesta escena canta una preciosa ària de Zemire et Azor (opera còmica inspirada en la història de la "bella i la bèstia" en el "libretto" original francès) de André Ernest Modeste Grétry (1741 - 1813) que va dominar aquest gènere al final del segle XVIII.
Al final, la lletra...
Du moment qu on s'aime/Quan ens estimem/When we love each other
L'on devient si doux/Ens tornem tan dolços/We become so sweet
Et je suis moi ¬même/I jo mateix estic/And I am, myself/
Plus tremblant que vous/ Més tremolós que tu/More trembling than you
Vous craignez l'esclave timide/Tu tens por de l'esclau tímid/You are afraid of the shy slave
Sur qui vous régnez!/ Sobre el que regnes!/Over who you reign
N'ayez plus de peur,/No tinguis mai més por/Don't be afraid
La haine homicide/ L'odi homicida/The homicide hate
Est loin de mon cœur/ Es lluny del meu cor/is far from my heart
Du moment qu on s'aime/Quan ens estimem/When we love each other
L'on devient si doux/Ens tornem tan dolços/We become so sweet
Et je suis moi ¬même/I jo mateix estic/And I am, myself/
Plus tremblant que vous/ Més tremolós que tu/More trembling than you

Cher/chère ami/amie:
Encore étonné pour ton commentaire...
As tu entendu parler de "publicité".. Je suis sincèrement convaincu que le "uploaded video" aide plus que abîme le film du Denys Arcand.
J'ai, donc, la conscience bien tranquille...
Sincères salutations

N'empêche que ce que vous avez fait est illégal! Je ne serais pas surpris que vous ayez filmé sur votre caméra le film au complet! Ne vous en vantez pas trop!! Denys Arcand n'a pas besoin de votre publicité...enfin pas de publicité piratée!

Je n'ai pas filmé le film! Je l'ai trouvé dans Internet...
Concernant l'avis de Denys Arcand, vous m'avez donnée une idée: je vais le contacter pour savoir son avis et s'il n'est pas d'acord je vais enlever le video..

Hi penroyaltea:
I don't know. I haven't seen the movie yet.
Rufus is not the main character but I think he has a relevant supporting role

It's an aria from Gretry's opera "Zemire et Azor". Not a lot of CD recordings are available because it is not one of those virtuoso operas by classical masters that get recorded and staged thousand times. While this is a beautiful beautiful piece laid on beautiful lyrics, its melody is rather simple. Rufus's unique voice makes it more interesting but you might not be so thrilled by a real operatic version.

= CULTURE..knowledge ...
I will surely share my "discoveries " with some friends and even if one of them buys the movie ( DVD ) or buys the Opera ( CD ) , I, " pirate" will have contributed "commercially" with the copyrights authors...
Not one cent in my pocket but nourishment to my cultures soul...
mapo69 can go fuck himself !

I agree 100% with your approach on the matter . "we, the pirates " make possible the global diffusion of the work of the authors that would otherwise, remain in the shadow.
For instance..I "discovered" only yesterday about the movie "L'age des tenebres "
I downloaded it and as soon as it started, I "discovered" and researched :
1. Du moment qu'on aime
2, Rufus Wairight
3. an Opera yet unknown "Zemir et Azor"
= I enriched myself with beautiful or interesting things = CULTURE

Dans ce cas particulier, mapo Adopi vous monte à la tete et vous en devenez tout ridicule !
Il y a sur utube de multiples teasers officiel et officieux, ici la bande annonce du film avec une image qui n'est pas tres bonne a pour objectif assez clair (faire connaitre une musique et éventuellement un film trop confientiel)... Il me semble qu'il y a sur internet assez de vrais sujets (piraterie et autres) pour ne pas faire de procès à tous à chacun pour de petits riens...
