This is so French

Despite having blogged about the French election race and being committed to keeping track of crazy French goings-on, Tearfree somehow managed to overlook this amazing fact about the new president's wife:

Cecilia met Nicolas Sarkozy in 1984 when he officiated as mayor at her first wedding. According to a recent biography, he was infatuated by her on the spot and pursued her till their marriage 12 years later.

Someone should make a movie about that.

Call me crazy but I swear I've already seen a French movie where the judge runs off with the bride.

Maybe the filmmaker should sue Sarkozy for living his life as a copy of the movie.

Hey, I just wrote a script with a bride and groom getting married. Can I be sued?
