me:  who's that?
nefeli:  you've got to be kidding me.  french iconic movie star?  the 70s?
me:  errrr.  no idea.  my top 70's crushes were al pacino in the uniform during the wedding scene in godfather and robert redford in the uniform at the beginning of the way we were.
nefeli:  what?? i can't believe you've never seen 'the red circle' or 'the samurai!'  didn't your mom ever show you these or tell you about alain (pronounced with more of an accent this time)?  look at  him!

  how can your mom not have told you about him?? 
me:  i will show you exactly why.  this was her top crush throughout the 70s, the height of hotness for her.  a mash-era elliott gould.

nefeli:  he reminds me of gallagher.
me:  i know.  that was her type. if you had a mustache, lived on long island, and were somewhat into barry goldwater you were probably going out to a friendly's at some point with my mom.
