Lemon in Zest

Incest!!!

Wait... let me back up...

First time I saw Charlotte Gainsbourg was in The Cement Garden, a 1993 movie dripping with melancholy and incest. Sort of moving, actually.

The next time I see her, it's in Michel Gondry's 2006 crypto-cardboard-dreamscape, The Science of Sleep.

I didn't realize she had any musical aspirations, wasn't aware of her papi's musical legacy, and MOST CERTAINLY wasn't aware of this 1984 French pop taboo nugget called "LEMON INCEST"...

... featuring a 12-year-old Charlotte and her 56-year-old father,
frolicking on a mattress,
half-nekkid,
both tortured with sexual frustration...!



Wow. Those French really don't give a shit, do they...?

Perhaps it's lost in translation...

Not to deviate from the subject of incest, but
