Bacon No 4 - here I come!
The director if Alliance Francaise de Poona, Monsieur Jean-Jacques Scaerou is an interesting personality. He is short, slightly rotund, always wears a smile on his face and is a connoisseur of music and art in general. I've seen him make fun - and in general entertain us often during boring phases of my study towards my Diploma. I must however add, that Alliance Francaise as an institution is as badly managed a place as I have ever seen, probably on par with COEP. But anyway, lets blame "the system" and move on.
So, the point is this. I was watching "A Mighty Heart" mostly interested by all the brouhaha created during the filming in Pune. So imagine when I see Mr. Scaerou playing the role of the French Ambassador(i think) in Karachi, Philippe Scaerou. He even has a couple of lines with Ms.Jolie.
Here is a screenshot.(some goof-up here. Will put correct shots later.)
Anyway, so Mr.Scaerou now has an IMDB page, and more importantly a Bacon number of 3.
Ok gotta go now - I've got to convince him to appear on a home video with me.

In parallel reading, you might want to check out A Mighty Shame, Asra Nomani's take on movie. She was one of Daniel Pearl's closest friends in Pakistan, and was with his wife during her ordeal.
BTW, loved Archie Punjabi who plays her in the movie. Dunno why, something was attirante.

good luck with the eggs. Archie Panjabi is also good in a short role in "East is East", but didn't like her screeching turn as much in "Bend it..."
get you home video with Monsieur Scareou soon. I've already appeared with you on TV, so I'd get a Bacon number of 5. Yippee!!
