Hello again,

Two postings in as many days...Apologies to anyone who is already tired of my questions!

At the moment, I'm looking for some information about the film version of the dossier 'I, Pierre Riviere, having slaughtered my mother, sister, and my brother...' published by Foucault and friends in 1975. To my knowledge, there exist two film versions: René Allio's 'Moi, Pierre Rivière, ayant égorgé ma mère, ma soeur et mon frère...' and Christine Lipinska's 'Je suis Pierre Rivière'. I came across a reference to one of the films in Alan Sheridan's book on Foucault ('The Will to Truth', p.134) that suggested that Foucault himself played a part in the movie - as a judge! So basically, I wanted to ask if anyone had seen either movie and could confirm in which version Foucault appears. This story seems almost too good to be true.

Thanks a lot - I'm grateful for any help on this matter.

Cheers,
Nick
