Synopsis

Deux devises juxtaposes a 19th-century love song by Charles Gounod with slide-dissolves to lyrics as typed translation with English subtitles on an empty screen; the second segment shows Douglas’s own mouth forming the words to a soundtrack of Robert Johnson’s “Preachin’ Blues” from 1936.
