Nothing to say, yet
Transcription
Jacques has made a surprising decision to buy a television, despite previously criticizing it. He plans to keep it hidden and casually mention it to his family. Jean hopes that Jacques won't be disappointed after years of mocking television. Dialogue 17. The Great Decision I have made a great decision, Jean. I have bought a television. You? Jacques, on how many occasions have you told me that television was an intrusion into the privacy of the house? That it destroyed the pleasures of conversation? That people no longer know how to make use of their leisure? I know, I know. And it's unusual for me to suffer a revision of thought. But on this occasion... Where is this treasure? Hidden in the gallows. Please make no allusion to it. I shall tell the family casually, as if there were nothing unusual in my buying a television. After years of derision, I hope you will not be disillusioned by your television.
