And, obviously, French people do not talk philosophy, psychology, sociology, anthropology or listen to music. "Opera" is a foreign word to them, too?

Lieder?

The French also despise art museums and cannot relate to architecture. Bauhaus? Cinema is entirely American. Marlene Dietrich, Romy Schneider, Klaus and Natascha Kinsky are absolutely unknown. Fritz Lang, Murnau, Bill Wilder and Wim Winders, Herzog etc. - never been heard of. Dance...Pia Bausch, who is that?! Joseph Beuys?! Who would read Peter Handke or vote for Daniel Cohn-Bendit? The French "loony" left never read Karl Marx, pacifists are unaware of Albert Einstein. Nietzsche?

Herzog and Kinsky on the film set of "Aguirre".
