Into the Deep: What draws the French so powerfully to the briny depths?

from Garlic & Pearls

Muriel takes Suzanne on a downward journey into the French passion for diving and underwater life. Why was the film The Big Blue such a hit in France? What cult French TV programme about the sea lies beneath it? Why is the oceanographer Jacques Cousteau so revered in France? And deeper still, what iconic submarine novel and archetypal taciturn hero informed it all?  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
