安老的电影已经挺精彩的了.我印象中最受不了的电影是Jacques Rivette的利安的故事>(The Story of Marie and Julien).买了票看电影,两个半小时的电影,前 面两小时二十分全是一男一女不着边际地讲废话,场景几乎没变过,全在一个小破屋里, 镜头都懒得动一下.观众纷纷走人.陪我看电影的朋友看到两小时二十分钟实在忍耐到了 极限,怂恿我走了.临走瞄了一下观众,没走的全睡着了. 后来我才知道,高潮全在最后五分钟里,原来那个女的是鬼. 从此以后看到Rivette君的电影都躲得远远的.
So, here are some ratios of France to the United States: GDP per capita: 0.731 GDP per hour worked: 0.988 Employment as a share of population: 0.837 Hours per worker: 0.884 So French workers are roughly as productive as US workers. But fewer Frenchmen and women are working, and when they work, they work fewer hours. Why are fewer Frenchmen working? As I’ve pointed out, during prime working years they’re as likely to work as Americans. But fewer young people work ( in part because of more generous college aid); and, mainly, the French retire earlier. The latter is arguably the result of misguided policies: Mitterand made early retirement alarmingly attractive. But it’s not a problem of weak productivity or mass unemployment. And why do the French work shorter hours? Probably for the most part because of government policies mandating vacation time. The bottom line is that France is a society with the same level of technology and productivity as the US, but one that has made different choices about retirement and leisure.
