This finally made it to the top of my DVD queue. Think it's been 3 years since I added it after reading the book. Look forward to seeing how this was adapted.

"Today it seems to me that my whole life was nothing but a string of those small near misses: a race whose result we know beforehand but in which we fail to bet on the winner."

Rustig opstarten vandaag met een tipje van @eelkonio

No subtitles other than Chinese, so my French is getting a work out.
