The young and largely untrained actors included André Treton ("Lebrac"), Michel Isella ("l'Aztec") and Martin Lartigue ("Petit Gibus"). The character Petit Gibus's line of dialogue - uttered in frustration - "si j'aurais su, j'aurais pas v'nu" ("if I woulda known, I wouldn'ta come"), with its incorrect grammar (the correct form should be: "si javais su, je ne serais pas venu") has become a familiar tagline in France (the line was not in the original novel). The film won France's Prix Jean Vigo. The film was remade in Ireland in 1994 as War of the Buttons, in an Irish setting, and again in France in 2011, with the original title.

He describes in his typical style his wife's pregnancy. It is sentimental, but slightly self-mocking, as he describes his inability to find something to do with himself as his wife goes through cravings. It features the memorable line "Même si je devenais pédé comme un phoque, je serais jamais en cloque" (even if I was gay as a lark, I would never be up the duff...). ;Ma chanson leur a pas plu...:(They didn't like my song...) This parody of his fellow French pop stars is a hard- edged rock number as an imaginary autobiographical narration of Renaud's difficulties coming up with new tunes.

D'elles (meaning About Them or From Them) is a French-language studio album by Canadian singer Celine Dion, released by Columbia Records on 18 May 2007. It is a concept album which features thirteen songs written by influential female authors from France and Quebec, including: Françoise Dorin, Christine Orban, Nina Bouraoui, Marie Laberge, Lise Payette, Denise Bombardier, Nathalie Nechtschein, Jovette Alice Bernier, Janette Bertrand and George Sand. The themes throughout this album centre on "woman"; the album's title is a play on the title of her earlier album D'eux, replacing the third person plural masculine or neutral pronoun eux with the feminine elles. The first single, "Et s'il n'en restait qu'une (je serais celle-là)" reached number one in France and number two in Quebec.

At the end of the year, during Dion's promotional visit to France, she performed "Immensité" on various occasions: on 2 November 2007 on Star Academy as a duet with one of the contestants; on 5 November 2007 during the Chérie FM Awards ceremony which wasn't broadcast on television; on 10 November 2007 on Hit Machine on M6; and on 29 December 2007 on Les Stars de L'année on France 2. Dion performed "Et s'il n'en restait qu'une (je serais celle-là)" in French-speaking territories during her Taking Chances World Tour, which means the album was only supported by one song. According to the tourbook, "Immensité" was rehearsed but never performed during the tour, though it was performed in later tours.

Marty Tobin from Quai Baco wrote that "Qui peut vivre sans amour?" is a "Celine Dion rock song" with a little saturated guitar in the chorus and many layers of violins which makes it closer to Mozart, l'opéra rock than "Killed by Death" by Motörhead. According to Evous France, "Qui peut vivre sans amour?" is a rock ballad with an energetic vocal, a little similar to "Et s'il n'en restait qu'une (je serais celle-là)". Geneviève Bouchard from La Presse criticized the track because of the rock sounds which dominated the song and Bernard Perusse from The Gazette called it a "quasi-arena-rock showcase" with a "strangely abrasive, tuneless chorus". After the single "Qui peut vivre sans amour?" was announced, Evous France criticized this choice, preferring the release of "Je n'ai pas besoin d'amour," "Une chance qu'on s'a," "Celle qui m'a tout appris" or "L'amour peut prendre froid".

John William Kaye, Lives of Indian Officers, 1899, W. H. Allen, p431 In his diary he noted that under his administration they had raised five regiments of fine cavalry and infantry, six regiments of very good military police and 2,700 cavalry police, planted thousands of trees, ensured serais were ever-present on main roads, police posts every two or three miles, and steps were taken in education. Despite the success of the Board of Administration, internal tensions had arisen and the new Governor General, Lord Dalhousie, preferred to invest power in the hands of single administrator. Part of the reason for this was Lawrence's insistence on compensating the Sikh nobility and aristocracy who had suffered ruin following defeat in the Second Anglo-Sikh War. Lawrence, mindful of the potential for discontent to be sewn by disgruntled aristocrats, liberally offered financial assistance, a policy opposed by both his brother John and DalhousieJohn William Kaye, Lives of Indian Officers, 1899, W. H. Allen, p431 Both Lawrence and his brother John tendered their resignation, however Dalhousie chose John as his new Lieutenant-Governor.
