Nabokov story[edit]

I saw the Rohmer film soon after it came out. I must say my reaction was the opposite to that of the French critics: whereas I greatly enjoyed 'The Lady and the Duke', I found 'The Triple Agent' like watching paint dry. Chacun a son gout. But I have just been reading the collected stories of Vladimir Nabokov, and one of them (The Assistant Producer) is clearly based on the same historical incident, though Nabokov's version is somewhat more fictionalised, perhaps because people involved were still alive when he wrote it. The story was written (in English) in 1943, and published in the collection 'Nabokov's Dozen' in 1958. There are doubtless other possible sources for Rohmer's film version, but I just wondered if Rohmer was aware of the Nabokov story. I don't know of any French edition, but I think Rohmer had a good knowledge of English anyway.

[Added:  Rohmer's interview in the Guardian (link above) doesn't mention Nabokov, and cites an article in a historical journal as Rohmer's inspiration.]2A00:23C8:7907:4B01:95C4:877D:633A:1F5C (talk) 15:39, 14 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
