DF n°106, Interview with CHRISTOPHE LORENTZ, March 15th, 2010


This show can be divided into two parts. In the first one, we had a phone call from Christophe Lorentz, who wrote in the company of Sophie Noël the book Charles Manson : le gourou du rock. The authors focused on the impact that this figure had on popular music culture, and it is quite disturbing to see the hundreds of bands (especially in the industrial music genre) who have been influenced in some ways or another by the sordid stories and fantasies revolving around this character. We listened to a lot of the artists that do appear in the book. In the second part, we talked about the cinema of Pietro Germi, an important Italian film-maker, who is not so well-known by now but who directed some masterpieces.
