Keyhole on the telescreen.
Keyhole on the telescreen.
"The mania has captured Frenchmen" - headings of newspapers shout. "You for
Or against? "That the such happens?
"People on the telescreen frolic, - the newspaper pacifies passions
"Parizen", - others look, how they frolic. Only and all.
Would be to swing because of what hands... "It is visible, all the same
Is because of what if it is so much people "razmahalos", and massmedija
All directions here any more one week give it of "anything"
The whole strips. One of the television channels, besides not most popular,
п -6, "has outridden all competitors and has reached the huge
Rating ".
"Loft Story" - the teleprogram which has "split" is called
France. "Anything extreme in it is not present: precisely such have passed and in
Holland, both in Italy, and in Portugal, and in other countries, but
Rough emotions have not called, - "France-suar" ascertains. - Only
There they were called more precisely - "the Big brother": a hint with
oruellovskim "1984", where from an all-seeing eye of "the big brother" not
Anybody can take cover. In that name were at least sense and
The position, in ours is not present anything ". Eleven young men oboego
Floor after the most severe selection from 38 thousand dreaming it to appear on
Their place in senses and firm memory have signed the contract, which
Have agreed to undergo severe (they consider, that sweet)
To experiment. Closed for 70 days in rather spacious and
Supercomfortable space - with park, a sauna, pool and
The other delights, supplied over a measure meal, drinks,
Delicacies, musical and video installations, but without the TV,
Radio and phone, they can communicate only with each other,
Gradually expelling from the environment (on the majority of voices)
"sokamernikov" as a result to remain together (conditional
"Ideal pair") and to receive for this victory completely
The equipped country house in cost of 3 million francs (400
Thousand dollars). However, this palace will be saved behind them only in
That case if will live in him in common yet less half a year.
Games with huge prizes on TV it is played how much
It is necessary. This differs only one: behind each step, behind everyone
Sigh of any participant 26 television cameras and 55 round the clock watch
Microphones, accompanying experimental both in a sauna, and in bed, and -
I am sorry - in a toilet. Every evening direct reportings from
Gilt cage are conducted on TV, besides chetvergovye
Transfers last some hours: inquisitive spectators have
Possibility to hear their conversations to see, how they eat,
Play the fool, mass each other, indulge in love...
"To whom has come to mind, - the newspaper"Mond"sneers, - to name
This interest inquisitiveness? Burning requirement to glance in
Keyhole is something absolutely other. When the such
The requirement seizes millions people, it is required to concern to
To her with full gravity and to subject this shocking phenomenon
To the socially-psychological analysis. What interest for the normal
The person is represented pustoporozhnjaja by chatter absolutely
Colourless persons, their passionless kisses and so
Passionless skandalchiki? Concepts have probably, sharply changed
"The normal person" and "normal interest", and it should be accepted
As a reality ".
About millions is a plain truth. One of most popular,
The most authoritative in France TV presenters, the writer and the journalist
Bernard Pivo, is distressed in a weekly journal "ZHurnal dju dimansh":"In
That evening when on the Bastile area were going to only 10
Thousand persons to note the 20 anniversary of coming to power of Francois
Mitterand, 10 million persons have fallen asleep in front of telescreens, that
To learn, who will appear the first expelled of virtual paradise.
Sympathy to the loser has rallied people, though to a psychosis, fortunately,
Have given in nevertheless not all: there was a lot of such, who this
National hysteria has named platitude and shamelessness. What
Shame: in the beginning of the last century France was split by business Drejfusa, in
The beginning of it is "Loft Story"! What further?. "To mourn over destiny
The "expelled" Aziz, the cute Frenchman Moroccan
Origins, are not present any need: what it the loser?
Having come to be on "freedom", Aziz has found popularity
National scale. Him have lodged in magnificent hotel near
The Champs Elysц e where the long turn was built for
Autographs. Its portraits have decorated pages of leading newspapers and
Covers of illustrated magazines. Its arrival to Cannes to time
Festival became bolshej sensation, than procession of movie stars. "Only
Michael Jackson received such applause ", - the newspaper" recognises Nis -
maten "." For what such merits it celebrated on smart reception
The mayor of Marseilles, native city of "hero"? - Asks a question Bernard Pivo.
- Aziz managed honours, worthy the subjugator of space,
The great peacemaker or the scientist, pronikshego in secrets of the Universe.
Unless it not profanation? Whether to search to us now Aziz's for name in
The list of the next gentlemen of the Honourable legion? "Even earlier wholly
Other "guinea pig" - David, voluntary has received
Left a cage in five days of an imprisonment. It it is fair
Admitted, writes magazine "Bet-match", that, making the way in group
Elite, pursued only one aim: to become well-known ".
Vozzhazhdavshy actor's career, he everywhere was refused, nobody
Has found in him of any talents. Now, having spent under an eye "the big
The brother "only five days and having understood, that in the further tests already
Is not present the slightest need, David has immediately received the invitation on
Leading role in a huge serial (by the way, as well as Aziz. -
A.V.), and the stream of similar invitations does not run low. Behind them, instead of for
Nicole Kidman paparazzi chase.
"Have lived!" - sneers "ZHurnal dju dimansh"."And whether costs
To sneer? - The newspaper as though responds to this remark
"Liberason". - whether to understand is better, with what phenomenon we
What conclusions have faced also it is necessary to make? "The diagnosis puts
Practically all French press, and, despite distinction in
Terms, it everywhere one.
"п -6 shows a society in its true kind, completely not such,
To what to us would like to see it, - to such conclusion comes
Weekly journal "Figaro-shop". - intellectuals are indignant,
The people aspiring by the sated spiritual life are indignant,
Knowledge afflicted with thirst and a variety of interests. For them this
The cynical striptease means wreck of their ideals, an encroachment on
Sacrament of private life, moral odichanie and dullness. In those,
Upon whom spy, millions spying learn themselves -
The views, the requirements, the dreams: nothing
To do, with anything itself not to trouble, but to be rich, to satisfy
Any desires.
"Loft Story" it is simple a mirror in which it would be desirable
To peer nothing to remarkable people, putting itself into place
Happy elects. The American dream of the simple person with
Streets on which case at will the shower of gold has spilt
("Equality of possibilities" in reality!), only in the European variant.
From the point of view of the settled representations the psychosis which has captured the country
It is fair to name social illness.
"Whether the society further on a way of delivery of moral positions will go
Or will make though something to resist to elements?
Advantage of the person is at all forgotten - the person is ready zashibat
dengu, having refused advantage any there, on which not
You will buy also a beer mug. The person has felt itself absolutely free,
Not having noticed, how much it became dependent on money... French
The TV was one of the best in the world. Now it, as everywhere,
Simply part of the market where chase incomes. They are brought by that
Look. That look means, and will show. And all
Other reasons have no price - neither in direct, nor in
Figurative sense ".
Similar, to the greatest surprise of newspapers, there were also opinions
Leading statesmen. "It is difficult to me to criticise
The program, - prime minister Lionel Jospin, - which has declared
Makes such spectator success "." I cannot lag behind the
Children who excitedly it look, - has expressed the minister on
To affairs of a family and Sц golц ne Royal's childhood, - therefore I too look it
Regularly ". And only the minister of culture Katrin Taska with grief
Admitted: "It is disturbing not that such things show, and that
Them look. Besides with such ecstasy. But in a free society is not present
Levers which could prevent this madness ".
Some editions have aimed to understand, what all the same
There was a most important task of the channel which has started 12-week transfer, in
Which nobody can see the slightest sense ("the multiclever
Reasonings on psychological experiment, on the test on
Compatibility and other call only a smile ", - believes
Weekly journal "Express train") and which povergla a society in such shock.
And all to one find only one answer: "Money, money,
Money by all means and any by ".
