Connection
Daniel Lanois is a Actor, Sound and Additional Music Canadien born on 19 september 1951 at Gatineau (Canada)
Daniel Roland Lanois, est un producteur de musique, musicien et auteur-compositeur-interprète canadien né le 19 septembre 1951 à Hull (aujourd'hui un secteur de la ville de Gatineau) au Québec. Il a produit des albums pour nombre d'artistes et quelques-uns sous son propre nom. Il a notamment travaillé avec Neil Young, Bob Dylan, U2, Peter Gabriel, Robbie Robertson, Ron Sexsmith, Michael Brook et Nick Cave .
Après avoir été découvert par Brian Eno et collaboré à quelques-uns des projets de celui-ci, sa carrière prend un nouvel élan quand Eno l'invite à co-produire The Unforgettable Fire de U2 en 1984. Il a travaillé sur de nombreux albums de ces derniers jusqu'à nos jours.
Bono de U2 a recommandé Lanois à Bob Dylan vers la fin des années 1980 ; en 1989, Lanois produit Oh Mercy, souvent considéré comme un des meilleurs albums de Dylan. Huit ans plus tard, les deux hommes retravaillent ensemble sur Time Out of Mind (un nouveau retour aux sources pour Dylan après Under the Red Sky (1990) et le diptyque Good as I Been to You-World Gone Wrong), collaboration qui lui vaut un prix Grammy du meilleur album en 1997.
En plus d'être producteur, Daniel Lanois joue de la guitare, du pedal steel, du dobro, il chante et il écrit des chansons. Cette palette de talents est utilisée sur plusieurs des albums qu'il produit, d'où la signature sonore qu'on lui attribue. Il est notamment connu pour sa chanson qu'il chante en français et anglais "Jolie Louise" sortie en 1989 et qui fait partie de son album Acadie.
Le titre "Jolie Louise" sera d'ailleurs repris par Isabelle Boulay sur l'album Les grands espaces, ainsi que par le trio Maxime Le Forestier, Francis Cabrel et Alain Souchon en 1997 sur l'album de l'association Sol En Si (Solidarité enfants Sida) sous le label WEA Records (France). Son album, "Flesh and machine", paru en 2014, est une collaboration entre Lanois et Brian Eno. Il s'agit d'un disque entièrement instrumental et ainsi plus proche du travail d'Eno sur ses albums de musique ambient. Il a d'ailleurs réalisé un album d'Eno de sa série Ambient, intitulé Ambient 4/On Land ainsi que d'autres albums du britannique.

At the end of the trip through Paris, a motorcycle cop (Taghmaoui) sits on his police-issued motorcycle, staring at some graffiti on a wall which reads "Fuck the Police" in French. Kicking his bike over, he pours gasoline on it, sets it alight, and watches it burn ("Breathe"). As dawn breaks, he gets on his own motorcycle and begins his journey through the French countryside before crossing into Spain, aiming to see his girlfriend in Tripoli ("Winter"). Pulling off for a break part-way through the journey, the cop lies on his back and watches a cloud form the image of the African continent before falling asleep ("White as Snow"). Waking up, he resumes his journey across Spain ("No Line on the Horizon").

Karl Childers (Billy Bob Thornton) is a mentally disabled Arkansas man who has been in the custody of the state mental hospital since the age of 12 for having killed his mother and her lover. Although thoroughly "institutionalized," Karl is deemed fit to be released into the outside world. Prior to his release, he is interviewed by a local college newspaper reporter, to whom he recounts the brutal murder of his mother and her boyfriend with a Kaiser blade - during which scene he notes to the reporter that, "Some folks call it a sling blade. I call it a kaiser blade," the line from which the film derives its name. Karl continues, saying that he killed the man because he thought he was raping his mother. When he discovered that his mother was a willing participant in the affair, he killed her too.
