We're almost into Evariste's double-centenary year... time for me to work a little harder...
... so, talking of time... the last thing Evariste is supposed to have written before the duel that killed him was... "Je n'ai pas le temps".... I have no time... dramatic, poignant... typically Galois ...
... and Italian director Ansano Giannarelli used these very words for the title of his 1972 feature film about Evariste... "Non Ho Tempo"... the film made it to Cannes in 1973, and onto Italian TV in 3 parts... but sadly I haven't been able to track down a copy...
To my knowledge, there are only two other films about the man, both named after him... one I know nothing about, a 30 minute affair directed by Daniele Baudrier (in 1984, for TV?)...

...the other, a short film from French director Alexandre Astruc, was made way back in 1965... I've seen clips, and I've got a translated transcript, but I would love to get a look at the whole thing... in fact I'd love to see all three... as part of our efforts to celebrate Evariste Galois...!
...and finally... an admission... there is one more film about Evariste Galois... made this year and covering his last night... called simply "Evariste Galois"... and I have definitely seen this one... because I helped produce it...
