voila, la fenêtre
May 17, 2011 9:15 PM

I read a quote once, that is failing to come to mind... something like 'voila, la fenêtre', from a piece of french literature, or perhaps a play. it was meant as a darkly comedic response to a heartfelt expression, kinda like Catherine Keener's character did in Being John Malkovich. Anyone have an inkling?

could you be thinking of "après moi, le déluge"?

I'm not familiar with the play (and I didn't have time to read for context) but a bit of googling turned up "La voila, la fenetre d'Electre" from the play Electre by Jean Giraudoux. Could that be it?

Is it Voici le déluge or Voila le déluge?
