The French Actress Marie Trintingnant: le désarroi de la Gauche combattante en France:
Service de Commémoration au Théâtre Edouard VII
Next to my office... Almost couldn't get in this morning, because serious security check "en vigueur"...
Funeral will be held today at Père Lachaise.
Mss Trintingnant, emblematic figure of the french cultural leftist elite, was the victim of intra-couple abuse, her husband, the front-leader of leftist rock formation Noir Désir repeatedly hit her in the hit, causing severe brain damage that led to the actress' death.
Violence against "femmes" was longtime considered not worthy of reflection,
and lyriccs of such groups as Noir Désir contained massive references to the subjugation of woman, be it verbal or physical.
A tragic story leads to even more tragedy as the french cultural elite tries to figure out where to go from here...
