Death of Julien Poulin: 5 memorable lines from Elvis Gratton

1. “Moé, ch’tun Canadian Quebecois, a Frenchman, French-Canadian. A French Canadian. A French North American.”

From Falardeau’s first short film, this scene gave birth to a line adored by many. Elvis Gratton is asked by a Frenchman if he is Canadian. What follows is an incredible monologue that has spanned the ages.

;

2. “I have a garage, a big garage.”

Elvis Gratton picks up someone who was hitchhiking in the first short film. When the person asks him what he does for a living, he answers this. A replica still repeated by several amateurs.

;

3. “Heille Méo, at the end… A talking tank!”

In this scene, Elvis and his brother-in-law Méo acquire a limousine… that talks. Several cult lines emerged from this moment when Elvis fights against the vehicle.

;

4. “I don’t want to lose my rocky mountains”

This line was said while the character was taking a photo shoot. He discusses federalism with the photographer. A true ode to Canada is then made.

;

5. “Because they have it, the Americans!”

Another cult line: the character praises the United States and the Americans whom he calls “Americans”.
