Question: Saved From Drowning

StopMakingSense — Sat, 22 Sep 2007 13:57:11 -0800

Where can I find a copy of the play by René Fauchois that Jean Renoir's film Boudou Saved From Drowning (Boudu sauvé des eaux) is based on? Does an English translation exist?

I live near NYC if, god forbid, I have to trek out into the real world to get my hands on a copy.

I don't know personally, but try the people at theatrebooks. They have helped me find some crazy obscure playscripts. They ship. If any one knows, they do.

Try "Livres Anciens Chaptal" if you're really desperate; the book is very hard to find.
