Evelyn and Napoleon, first scene

I do not remember why I was fascinated by Napoleon Bonaparte as a young boy. I can only fill in some reasons. I decided to find a Napoleonfan and edit him into a film with the emperor, so that he could give his reasons to his idol, and tell him his story. Googling "Napoleonfan" I expected an older man or an adolescent boy, but I found someone much more interesting, a 14 year old girl. On the many fansites I had already seen that there are girls declaring their love for the 200 year old emperor. Finding strength in the example of a man who singlehandedly turned Europe upside down seems very important.
    I have asked Evelyn if she felt she had got closer to getting to know the emperor by being in this film. She said yes, but what it means exactly I do not know.

My body is an animal, that's nothing new. It has remained the same animal since it was considered human. No theory has ever changed it. I think the world is all that there is, and my body is a part of it.

My body craves to be treated like an animal, and it thrives on acting like one. I tell my wife, "I want to live with you like two puppies, intuitive and physical, in order to love you best." Loving best as humans is hard. As humans there is always something else. Now we regularly are Fox and Hare, and our daughter is Chicky Eek.
