Last night I had a strange and unprecedented wet dream about french actor Bernard Blier. He's never been among my favorites but now I can't help fantasizing about him. What do you think of him?

I remember seeing him in something. Cute.

Bernard Blier - pipe smoker

I like a man with a beard or moustache, but Bernard Blier rarely wore either. Even so, he still comes in my top five most handsome men. I would have happily handed my body over to him for his personal pleasure any time he wanted.

Of course, a natural pipe smoker.

He regularly appeared in television interviews with his pipe.

So, for this post, I'm sticking with Blier and his pipe.

And I have to say, any man looks better smoking a pipe. As far as Blier goes, though, he had a head-start in the looks department anyway.

Here, I imagine he's looking down at the top of my head while I work my mouth around his packet as he sits puffing his briar until he squirts.

What is it about pipe-smoking men that gets me so excited? Monsieur Blier, you have a lot to answer for!

Bernard Blier and Arletty in Hõtel du Nord (Marcel Carné, 1938) Cast: Arletty, Louis Jouvet, Annabella, Jean-Pierre Aumont, Jane Marken, André Brunot. René Bergeron, Paulette Dubost, François Périer, Andrex, Henri Bosc, Marcel André, Bernard Blier, Jacques Louvigny, Armand Lurville, Génia Vaury. Screenplay: Henri Jeanson, Jean Aurenche, based on a novel by Eugène Dabit. Cinematography: Louis Née, Armand Thirard. Production design: Alexandre Trauner. Film editing: Marthe Gottié, René Le Hénaff. Music: Maurice Jaubert.  Arletty's performance as the raucous streetwalker Raymonde in Hôtel du Nord is quite unlike her most famous role, the fascinating, enigmatic Garance in Marcel Carné's  Children of Paradise (1945). Raymonde shares a room in the hotel with Edmond (Louis Jouvet), a photographer who is hiding out from his old cronies in the Parisian underworld. The film begins with a traveling shot along the canal that flanks the hotel, where we first see a young pair of lovers, Pierre (Jean-Pierre Aumont) and Renée (Annabella), walking arm in arm. Inside the hotel, the residents are celebrating the first communion of the daughter of Maltaverne (René Bergeron), a policeman who lives at the hotel. (It's a diverse household.) Pierre and Renée enter and request a room for the night, but instead of making love, they have decided on a suicide pact: He will shoot her, then kill himself. He holds up the first part of the bargain, but then chickens out. Edmond, who has been in his darkroom, hears the shot and breaks down the door, finding Renée apparently dead and Pierre cowering indecisively. Taking the gun from Pierre, Edmond urges him to flee. (The gun becomes a Chekhov's gun when Edmond first tosses it away and then recovers it and stashes it in a drawer.) Renée recovers from the gunshot, and Pierre, torn with guilt, turns himself in to the police as an attempted murderer and is sent to prison. After she recuperates, Renée returns to the hotel to collect her things, and is offered a job there by Madame Lecouvreur (Jane Marken), the wife of the proprietor (André Brunot). And so the story of the suicidal lovers begins to intertwine with that of Edmond and Raymonde. It's all neatly done, with a great deal of atmosphere (a word that Raymonde will give a particular spin to), much of it created by Alexandre Trauner's set, a re-creation in the studios at Billancourt of the actual hotel and the Canal St. Martin.  The film's melodrama is alleviated by the ensemble work and the performances of Jouvet, who can switch from menacing to vulnerable in an instant, and Arletty, who makes the tough, worldly wise Raymonde often very funny. The film concludes with Carné's skillful staging of an elaborate Bastille Day sequence that anticipates the crowd scenes in Children of Paradise.

Le Président (1961)

Once again, we get treated to Jean Gabin, one of the finest French actors of the 20th century.

I've posted one from this film before (Gabin gloved). The film sees Gabin aged, with moustache and, above all, frequently in letter gloves.

The dialogue is fast-paced and clever (unsurprisingly, as it is signed Michel Audiard), and gives us a Gabin at his imperious best.

Not the best image, this one, but doesn't he look like a man you would willingly submit to.

It also features his regular partner (on screen, but perhaps also off? I like to think so) Bernard Blier.

I'd happily be sandwiched between the two of them for their own perverted pleasure...
