![]() ![]() ![]() Il s'agit, selon une idée de Winston Churchill, de recruter et de former un sosie (Meyrick Edward Clifton James) pour jouer le rôle du général Montgomery - le général des forces alliées, alors surveillé par les nazis - et ainsi induire en erreur l'ennemi quant au lieu réel du Débarquement. À partir d'un fait réel, Jean Harambat crée de toutes pièces une histoire d'une inventivité folle et réalise un pastiche désopilant et fantaisiste de trois protagonistes : les comédiens David Niven, Peter Ustinov et Clifton James. ![]() Opération Copperhead, c'est une histoire aussi vraie que rocambolesque du contrespionnage britannique pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Riley is not a one night stand girl and neither is Brett. They share a passionate kiss and are both left wanting more. When she is rescued by a handsome gentleman, she is intrigued. She has had a bit of a dry spell and her small town dating pool is getting a bit shallow. Riley is a thirty-something single woman on a wild bachelorette vacation in a tropical paradise. The issue is that shit is about to hit the fan and I can’t hold on to him tight enough. The issue is that I don’t even know she exists, and he thinks she’s dead. He flipped my quiet life upside down and crawled into a place in my heart I thought was dead. Caressed my thigh, dug rough fingers into my hair, lowered his soft mouth to my skin, took sexual control of my mind and stirred it all around with what he packed in his pants. Had stopped counting calories and wearing makeup… a while ago. I had a good job, wonderful friends, my independence. In my life as a single, thirty-two year old woman. ![]() |
