Je possède désormais une alliance en argent, quels conseils suivre et quels faux-pas éviter?

Idéalement, je me verrais bien la garder tout le temps, pour la symbolique (et éviter de l'oublier car je suis pas lz canard le plus cancanant de la mare). Mais là je viens de me laver les mains deux fois avec, mais je me suis rendu compte que je faisais peut-être un truc grave. Surtout que je crois que l'argent ternit contrairement à l'or (mais je ne suis point Crésus).

Merci et bises!

Just fell on this strange gem. The shots and VFX are wonderful, the script from Bruno Dumont is weirder. Thought you might enjoy the view! I hope this doesn't go against the rules, but it seems authorized if I have read them well. If not, sorry!

En gros c'est "Good Omens" version space-opéra tourné sur la Côte d'Opale avec Camille Cottin et Fabrice Luchini. Il y a aussi la Sainte-Chapelle et le palais de Caserte (palais de Padmé) dans l'espace avec des étoiles car ce sont des vaisseaux spatiaux. Le visionnage de ce film fut... euh... intéressant, mais confusant. Je ne sais pas trop quoi en penser.

(c'est mon premier film du réalisateur, apparemment c'est important de le préciser)
