Plot
This documentary tells two stories simultaneously: it's a profile of Bernard Tapie, a wealthy man who rises and falls spectacularly in French society and may be on the rise again; and, it's a look at Marina Zenovich's fascination with Tapie, behaving oddly in spite of her awareness that she's being irrational. Politicians, athletes, friends, companions, and journalists comment on Bernard's charm, his rise to prominence in sports and politics, and his subsequent trouble with the law. Zenovich becomes fixated on her need to interview Tapie, becoming virtually a stalker in her quest.

Newsweek is an American weekly news magazine published in New York City. It is distributed throughout the United States and internationally. It is the second-largest news weekly magazine in the U.S., having trailed Time in circulation and advertising revenue for most of its existence. Newsweek is published in four English language editions and 12 global editions written in the language of the circulation region.
Since 2008, Newsweek has undergone a series of internal and external contractions designed to shift the magazine's focus and audience while shoring up the title's finances. Instead, losses at the newsweekly accelerated: revenue dropped 38 percent from 2007 to 2009. The revenue freefall prompted an August 2010 sale by owner The Washington Post Company to 92-year-old audio pioneer Sidney Harman—reportedly for a purchase price of $1.00 and an assumption of the magazine's liabilities. Editor Jon Meacham departed from the magazine upon completion of the sale.
In November 2010 Newsweek merged with the news and opinion website The Daily Beast after extensive negotiations between the proprietors of the respective publications. Tina Brown, The Daily Beast's editor-in-chief was expected to serve as the editor of both publications. Newsweek is jointly owned by the estate of the late Harman and IAC.

His performance in 127 Hours earned him nominations for many high-profile awards, including the Academy Awards, Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Awards.

I'm sitting here
going round in circles,
all the boring day.
I'm waiting for the coffee,
but you have gone away.
Lonesome days and lonesome nights,
without you by my side,
have passed since you have left my home,
in that awful night.
I recall those sunny springtime mornings,
those stormy nights in fall,
I'd like to feel the same again,
but you don't care at all.
Don't break my heart, Don't break my heart,
Don't let us fall apart, don't break my heart
I'm sitting here without a trace,
why did you go away ?
Oh, how I'd like to see your face,
but you didn't want to stay.
Without you now my life is sad,
I have to recognize,
I wish now I could turn back time
and have to pay the price.
We watched the moon,
we watched the stars,
and sometimes felt so small,
the stars still shining every night,
but you don't care at all.
>> Refrain
>> Solo
I recall those sunny springtime mornings,
those stormy nights in fall,
I'd like to feel the same again,
but you don't care at all.
>> 3x Refrain
